        Our AFA Scheduling Committee Chairpersons met on Tuesday, December 26 to discuss their ongoing program of work to represent Flight Attendants interests related to lineholder scheduling. The Committee also met with management to receive updates and discuss issues and problems that Flight Attendants are experiencing with scheduling, pairings, and bidding.

        Survival

        Could you survive on $26,946 annually? This is only one of the reasons Alaska Airlines Flight Attendants are voting to authorize a strike. We are asking management, if they couldn’t live on these wages, why do they expect their hard-working Flight Attendants to do so?
