Sun Country Airlines to lay off 350 Minneapolis ground workers

Sun Country Airlines is cutting 350 workers from its ground service operations at Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. The Eagan-based company told employees Tuesday it will contract those jobs out to Global Aviation Services. Executives say the move will make Sun County more efficient. Layoffs begin immediately, with workers able to reapply for positions with Global Aviation as soon as Wednesday. Affected workers include nonunion positions inside the terminal, such as ticket counter agents, sky caps and those who provide wheelchair services. The decision will trim nearly 20% of Sun Country's workforce of about 1,830.<br/>
