System Board of Adjustment Interviews
Originally posted April 17, 2023
Our Master Executive Council (MEC) will be conducting interviews for one member to serve on the AFA System Board of Adjustment.
Crew Access Frustrations
Originally posted April 17, 2023
Changes to how trips are posted and displayed in Crew Access and other ongoing system issues have resulted in concerns about contractual violations and a lack of management accountability. Management must provide a functional system that works correctly and has agreed to troubleshoot the current issues and review programming changes to Crew Access. AFA Representatives will continue protecting Flight Attendant interests and contractual rights through all legal means available to us, including the grievance process as applicable.
Join The Fight To End Trans Genocide
Originally posted April 18, 2023
Our CWA Pride Caucus launched a petition on March 31st—International Transgender Day of Visibility. The goal of the petition is to have a statement read in the House and the Senate about the reality that trans people in America are in Stage 7 of a genocide. Stage 8 is when large scale round ups and exterminations begin. Any observer of the history of human rights crimes will tell you the situation is well past terrifying.
