        Negotiation Session 22

        Originally posted June 13, 2024

        Next week, we take our fight to Washington, DC! Our Negotiating Committee will fly to Washington, DC for our 5th mediation session. Typically, when negotiations get to final stages, the NMB will want to meet with the parties before progressing to any next steps under the Railway Labor Act (RLA). Convening mediation in DC continues the process toward a tentative agreement Flight Attendants can ratify. We said, “We Won’t Wait,” and we mean it! Today, we are kicking off this Red Hot Solidarity Summer with the second Worldwide Flight Attendant Day of Action, to show we are more united than ever!

        Our Day of Action Is Tomorrow!

        Originally posted June 12, 2024 – for reference only

        Join us on the picket line tomorrow as Flight Attendants worldwide are standing strong against corporate greed. Together, 80,000 flight attendants are uniting in a historic fight against airline management to demand respect for aviation’s first responders.

        Flight Attendants cannot afford to wait any longer for these agreements and neither can the airlines. While airlines have boasted record passenger numbers and revenue, contract negotiations for Flight Attendants have been ongoing for years! Tell airline management, it’s time to get this done, NOW!
