Change in Flight Attendant Retirement Plan Account
Flight Attendants enrolled in the Flight Attendant Retirement Plan may have noticed a change to their account. Over the past few weeks Vanguard transferred your “frozen” Flight Attendant retirement account into your current 401(k) account. This consolidation combines both accounts under a single account number, your 401(k) account number.
Information was mailed to your home, but if you have questions about this change please reach out to Vanguard:
Online: https://personal.vanguard.com/us/JSP/RegLogOn/Regis/RegActivityContent.jsf to sign up for account access. You will need your plan number for this registration. If you already have an online account with Vanguard your current name and password will enable you to access your accounts.
By phone: Call the 24-hour interactive VOICE network at 800-523-1188. You will need a personal identification number (PIN) to use VOICE. To create a PIN follow the prompts.
With Personal Assistance: Vanguard Participant Services associates are available to assist you at 800-523-1188 Monday-Friday from 5:30 a.m. to 6 p.m., (PST).
