        May 2022 MEC Meeting Recap

        May 25, 2022 17:00

        Master Executive Council (MEC)

        • Our AFA Alaska Master Executive Council (MEC) met this week on Tuesday, May 24 to conduct their ongoing work to represent our Flight Attendants.
        • As part of the meeting, our MEC joined the May 24th Negotiating Committee Listening Session to hear directly from our Flight Attendants about experiences, thoughts, and ideas for upcoming contract negotiations.
        • The next Regular MEC Meeting is scheduled to take place on Tuesday, June 14 and Wednesday, June 15.  Please don’t hesitate to reach out to your LEC President if you have any questions.

        The May 2022 Regular MEC Meeting was held this week on Tuesday, May 24.  The meeting consisted of updates provided by our MEC Officers, LEC Presidents, Grievance Committee, and Scheduling Committee.  Our MEC also reviewed written reports submitted by other AFA MEC Committee Chairpersons about their current programs of work.  In addition, the proposed 2022-23 fiscal year MEC budget was approved at the meeting by the voting members of our MEC (LEC Presidents).

        Negotiating Committee Listening Session

        Our MEC joined the scheduled May 24th Negotiating Committee Listening Session to directly hear some of the thoughts, ideas, and challenges that are being shared with our Negotiating Committee as they gather feedback from our Flight Attendant group.  Thank you to everyone who has gotten involved in the process and participated in or is planning to attend a listening session.  If you’re interested in signing up for one of the remaining listening sessions, you can find more information on our Contract 2022 website.     

        No Meeting with Management This Month

        With the AFA Board of Directors Meeting having been held earlier in the month, this month’s MEC Meeting was scheduled as a one-day event.  Given the shortened meeting length and full schedule, it was not possible for our MEC to meet with management as part of this month’s MEC Meeting.  Our MEC will resume standing meetings with management during the June 2022 Regular MEC Meeting. 

        Questions?

        If you have any questions about this month’s Regular MEC Meeting, please reach out to your LEC President.

This update covers changes for both Hawaiian- and Alaska-branded flying, but is specific to aircraft flown by pre-merger Hawaiian Airlines crews. As the work of the merger progresses, we […]
