    Negotiating Committee Financial Survey Reminder

    September 3, 2014 11:28

    The Negotiating Committee is grateful for the amazing response of our Flight Attendants and their willingness to share their financial struggles with us.  This is a personal issue and we value your honesty and trust.

    We are concerned but not surprised by the number of responses.  We know, however, this is not all of you.  We have heard some say that this survey was available for a short period of time and flight attendants could not continue to participate.  That is incorrect.  We are committed to gathering your stories for as long as it is necessary to ensure that everyone wanting to share has had the opportunity.

    Because of the statistics involved in this survey and our desire to understand all of the needs of our group, the sooner you can return your survey the better.  This helps us have stable statistics as we move forward in negotiations.

    To make this easier for you to respond, we are going to attach the questionnaire in this communication.  Please return it to one of the negotiators below or whichever one you feel most comfortable with.  If you have any questions please continue to ask.  We are here to help and listen.
