        Master Executive Council (MEC)

        • Members of our Master Executive Council (MEC) and other AFA Representatives will be attending the AFA Board of Directors (BOD) Meeting later this week.  The BOD meeting is where business affecting all AFA airlines is conducted.
        • Your LEC President is your representative at the BOD meeting and will be voting on your behalf regarding approval of the AFA International budget, proposed amendments to the AFA Constitution & Bylaws, and the election of AFA International Officers.
        • If you have any questions about the BOD meeting, submitted agenda items, or international officer elections, please contact your LEC President.

        Later this week, our Master Executive Council (MEC) Officers, Local Executive Council (LEC) Presidents, and many other LEC Officers and Committee Chairs will be attending the 49th Annual AFA Board of Directors (BOD) meeting in Las Vegas, Nevada.  They will join representatives from the other airlines that make up AFA to conduct the business of our Union at the international level.  It’s worth noting that this is the first in-person meeting of the BOD since 2019.

        A total of nine advance agenda items were submitted for consideration by the Board at this meeting.  Each Local Council has held or will hold a Local Council meeting prior to the BOD meeting to discuss these agenda items and gain your feedback.  You can find a list of these agenda items and complete language on the AFA BOD Meeting website.

        International Officer Elections

        In addition to the consideration of agenda items, AFA International Officers elections will also take place at this year’s BOD meeting.  As your directly elected representative, your LEC President will be voting on your behalf for the offices of International President, Vice President, and Secretary-Treasurer.
