About 75 employees at Coca-Cola's Atlanta headquarters will lose their jobs towards the end of February, according to a Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act filing.

Lisa Chang, Coke's executive vice president and global chief people officer, wrote in a warned letter that the company anticipates workforce reductions will occur in waves over the coming months.

She adds that employees were given more than 60 days' notice and affected workers are not represented by a union.

Coca-Cola spokesperson Scott Leith says this is part of an ongoing process to eliminate some jobs while creating others, and the overall number of changes has yet to be determined.

Inside Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, Ellen Silva just arrived from Baltimore.

She's staying until Tuesday.

Silva is a professional pet sitter and is concerned that her job might be affected if her return flight is altered by the flight reductions.

Airlines encourage customers to check their flight status before heading to the airport.

Frontier and Delta Airlines expect flights will go as planned.

Customers whose flights are canceled or delayed can rebook or request a refund online.

The DOE is helping Rivian complete its Georgia manufacturing plant with a multibillion-dollar lifeline. U.S. Senator John Ossoff says the state offered incentives to bring the company here, and there was a real risk that this project might not have restarted.
