Genoese said he sent a telegram to Steven G. Rothmeier, chairman and chief executive officer of NWA Inc., the parent company of Northwest, requesting a meeting.
Earlier, in the morning, Genoese said workers were being told to walk out.
Mr. Genoese says he will disclose more of his strategy this week.
Genoese said Thursday that there was enough support for Local 732 among other Teamsters locals to cut off the airline's supplies of fuel, laundry and liquor around the world.
I thought, `Bull, this man has been a proud, loud Genoese Italian with no connection to the Hispanic community,'" says Mr. Roybal.
Genoese cited economic and safety concerns as reasons for holding off on a strike this long.
At Pan Am, where membership shrank from more than 7,000 members to its current 4,300, Mr. Genoese is starting to meet real resistance.
Earlier Sunday, William Genoese, director of the airline division of Teamsters Local 732, announced that the workers had overwhelmingly authorized a strike, although he refused to release figures on the vote.
In addition to his continuing relationship with Towers, Genoese also persuaded a coalition of Pan Am unions to hire the powerhouse investment firm Drexel Burnham Lambert Inc. to explore a possible buyout.
"We're very up," Genoese said. "We're ready to sit down and negotiate." Mediated contract talks between Northwest Airlines and the union representing the carrier's 4,800 pilots will begin in earnest Jan. 4, a company spokesman said Friday.
Genoese said reservation clerks and other Teamsters members would attempt to disrupt Pan Am operations through "guerrilla warfare," starting immediately.
Bryan and Genoese said the Teamsters plan to contribute $100,000 to the Eastern employees' strike fund.
In earlier statements, Genoese said selective strikes would be used to keep the airline off balance.
For many Genoese businessmen, the port's conversion to the cause of privatisation is hard to swallow. Mr Riccardo Garrone, the chairman of the ERG petroleum group and a leader of the city's business community, responds with scepticism mixed with hope.
Genoese's biggest battle is at Pan Am.
He declined to comment on a threat Saturday by Teamsters union leader William F. Genoese to organize a sympathy walkout at Pan American World Airways concentrating on the Pan Am Northeast shuttle.
It's on the increase," Genoese said.
Genoese, 62, the director of the Teamsters union's Airline Division, is an old-style labor leader and a perpetual thorn in the side of big carriers like Pan Am Corp.
The talks resumed at 3 p.m. at Pan Am headquarters in Manhattan, but recessed about a half-hour later when the company rejected the mediator's call for arbitration, according to Genoese.
In a statement over the weekend, Genoese said Pan Am's teamsters will strike the carrier if workers' rights aren't protected in any kind of merger.
Genoese said Tuesday that Pan Am still was trying to work out "some sort of a merger arrangement" with the larger Northwest.
