        Inflight Service Committee Meeting Recap – 2nd Quarter 2024

        Originally posted May 28, 2024

        Our AFA Inflight Service Committee Chairpersons met on May 21 to represent Flight Attendants’ interests related to catering and onboard service/sales. The Committee met with management to discuss and receive updates on issues and problems faced by Flight Attendants onboard. The Committee continues to work with management to address catering concerns and improve processes in the future. Please report catering issues through Block2Block and safety-related issues through ReportIt!

        Negotiation Session 21

        Originally posted May 31, 2024

        This week, we tentatively agreed to Section 10.R-S, which closes out the operational components for Reassignments and Pre-Cancellations. We also presented a comprehensive proposal to management. While the parties are closer together, there is more work to be done. Next month we have a mediation session scheduled, as well as an added negotiation session without the mediator.

        Financial State

        Alaska Flight Attendants struggle, Alaska management boasts. How can management continue to tout their excellence while knowing 79% of the Financial Survey respondents face financial insecurity due to the airline’s pay rates? Or that 5% were homeless in the last year?? Make it make sense.

        Where’s the CHAOS™?

        We have mediation and negotiation sessions scheduled through September at this time. If an impasse in negotiations is reached, our Negotiating Committee is fully prepared to request the release to strike from the National Mediation Board.
