U.S. airline pilots are pressing the Trump administration to revoke a permit that allows the Irish subsidiary of Norwegian Air Shuttle to fly to the United States. Speaking with reporters on February 8, leaders of the Air Line Pilots Association (Alpa) said President Donald Trump’s “America first” rhetoric leads them to believe that he will side with unions in denying entry to Norwegian Air International (NAI).
