Urgent Reminders: Early Deplaning and Social Media
DO NOT Leave the Aircraft During Deplaning
This is a firm reminder that stepping off the aircraft to commute home while passengers are deplaning is strictly prohibited and may result in disciplinary action. Even when the minimum required crew remains on board, all assigned Flight Attendants must remain on the aircraft until the last passenger has deplaned as outlined in our Flight Attendant Manual (FAM).
Think Before You Post
The way we communicate online has changed, and so has the level of attention given to social media activity. We want to remind everyone to be extremely mindful of what you post online.
Be cautious when posting while on company time, in company uniform, or when discussing Alaska Airlines, Hawaiian Airlines, coworkers, or company-related matters. Even posts or comments that may seem harmless or are intended for a limited audience can be reviewed if they come to the company’s attention.
In conversations with other Alaska AFA Local Presidents, social media has consistently been identified as one of the more common sources of disciplinary investigations on the AS side. Posts in private groups (HAL Life, Galley Tea, etc.), comments on social media platforms, or interactions that you believe are only visible to a select audience may still be shared or reported.
Before posting, ask yourself whether the content could be misunderstood, taken out of context, or reflect negatively on you or your employment. A few extra moments of thought before clicking “post” can help prevent unnecessary investigations or disciplinary issues.
Remember, nothing shared online should ever be assumed to be truly private. Protect yourself by thinking before you post. When in doubt, don’t post it.
Comment Guidelines: AFA Alaska Social Media Guidelines and the AFA-CWA Mutual Respect Policy apply to all website posts and comments. Please take a moment to review and understand both before posting.
