A labor demonstration at LAX on Tuesday caused extra traffic, and resulted in the arrest of 16 protestors. The protest was organized by Unite Here, a union which represents catering workers. Protestors were demonstrating in the hopes of achieving greater wages and benefits. Despite disrupting traffic on one of the busiest travel days of the year, flight operations were not negatively impacted by the demonstration. Unite Here has organized additional demonstrations that will take place across the country during this travel period.
