Southwest Airlines Co. is cutting 270 pilot positions across its Denver and Atlanta operations, the latest changes under broad efforts to reduce costs and maximize use of aircraft.
The moves will affect 155 roles in Denver, a Southwest spokesman said Tuesday. The flight schedule is not being cut in that market, but the airline said it plans to keep fewer planes there overnight for morning departures.
