        SEA Domicile Negotiations – September 2025 Update #2

        Originally posted September 17, 2025 | Pre-Merger Hawaiian

        In our recent negotiations with management, it has become increasingly clear that Alaska Airlines is reluctant to negotiate a fair agreement to establish the SEA domicile. Our vision is to uphold the integrity of the Hawaiian brand while fostering a supportive environment for experienced Flight Attendants, ensuring the highest standards of hospitality are maintained. We remain committed to addressing key priorities, such as transfer processes and staffing, while advocating for protections that honor our longstanding contractual language and our commitment to both our Flight Attendants and the Hawaiian community.
