Mobilization Update July 3, 2014: More Solidarity Events!

Dear Flight Attendants,

Your Master Executive Council (MEC), Negotiating Committee and Mobilization Committee have been busy planning more solidarity activities this summer. We wanted to get this information into your hands before the Independence Day holiday weekend and before bidding opens in PBS.

Join us at the RED Hot AFA Summer BBQ at Angle Lake Park in SeaTac, WA—right next to the Alaska Airline Corporate Headquarters! The picnic will be on Wednesday, August 20th in the afternoon. Flight Attendants throughout the system are invited and may utilize non-revenue travel to attend this recreational—and educational—event!

AFA will also conduct a system-wide solidarity activity at each of the Flight Attendant domiciles on the following Wednesday, August 27th, time TBD. For maximum impact, we are going to withhold the details for now.

Also, remember there is a system-wide solidarity event on Tuesday, July 22nd.  We will be doing another airport walk and handing out the latest swag. Do you think it’s time for a new AFA t-shirt? Come out and join us!

Here are the session times around the system:

ANC: 1pm-4pm
SEA: 5am-9am, 11am-4pm, 5pm-10pm
PDX: 5:30am-8:00am, 8:00am-10:30am
LAX: 5am-8:30am, 8:30am-12pm, 1pm-4:30pm
SAN: 8am-11:30am
