Dozens of employees at Charlotte Douglas International Airport could be out of work soon. It never feels good when your job is uncertain. But that is where some people are right now. There is a changeover at the airport and that is why an employment question lingers.
According to our source, Channel 9 in Charlotte, here are the details. A Maryland based company provides food and beverage service for the Charlotte airport as well as other airports across the country. HMS Host announced this week that it will no longer have food operations at the two Admiral clubs at the airport.
If you are like me, you may never have heard of the "Admirals Club". It is a lounge for passengers that are eligible and it provides food and other amenities for air travelers waiting on their next flight. According to the North Carolina Department of Commerce, 91 employees will be let go. The lay offs will happen between March 3 and March 17.
Another company will reportedly take over operations of the airport lounge. And that company will reportedly take over in early March. When that transition takes place Channel 9 says employment will be offered to many of the "impacted associates". Dozens of employees at Charlotte airport could be out of work soon.
Charlotte Douglas International Airport is a major employer. Approximately 20,000 people work there. While things do seem up in the air for some of those employees there is hope of job retention once the new food and beverage company takes over.
