        In the recent negotiations held in Seattle, significant strides were made toward addressing critical concerns regarding the Hawaiian Seattle Domicile.

Both parties acknowledged the time-sensitive nature of these talks, emphasizing the need to provide Flight Attendants with concrete information and adequate time to evaluate their options, ensuring they can make well-informed decisions regarding the new Seattle Domicile.
