    Weekly Update

     

    The Negotiating Committee will be sending out a weekly update to let everyone have the opportunity to know and review the information and questions we are answering via the Negotiations blog. You will find the daily posts linked below.

    Search the blog using keywords

     

    You can search in the blog using keywords to find answers to specific questions about the provisions being discussed. We are increasing the content on a daily basis as we turn your questions into posts for all Flight Attendants to access. The Negotiating Committee anticipates the release of the full text language in the next few days and we know this will bring even more questions.

    “Q&A,” “Get the facts” and “Did you know?”

     

    We are using the format of “Q&A,” “Get the facts” and “Did you know?” to give you valuable information in a variety of formats to make an informed decision. We wish you happy reading and keep the questions coming! You can reach the committee on the Negotiations blog, via the Negotiations feedback form or email at negotiations@afaalaska.org.
