negotiations sour, a union official said on Thursday.

Argh. It's not clear from that article when such a strike might occur.
They mention March 1, as the deadline for a new contract, but might it
occur sooner? I have flights next week on Song.

I found a few more details at USA Today (they
have a good travel section):

After March 1, matters go to an 3 person arbitration
board.
