worker was dismissed for being rude to a customer.

It is understood the employee was sacked after an incident at the terminal last week.

The remaining 30 staff were unhappy at the situation and called in the Bermuda Public Services Association.

US Airways spokesman David Castelveter said he could not comment on an internal staffing matter.

It is understood US Airways executives are flying in on Friday for talks with the BPSA.

A BPSA spokesman said they were hopeful the situation would be sorted out by the end of the week.
