        Council #19 Update

        July 8, 2023 17:03

        First, thank you for your patience and understanding as we maneuver through these times. We realize everything is somewhat ‘fluid and vague’, but we are working to get more concrete plans in place, and as soon as we do, you will know! Keep in mind, when we set up events, there are processes that have to take place (permits, etc). 

        Thank you for showing solidarity with your fellow Flight Attendants by wearing your RED AFA pin. Continue to monitor social media to see the hours of distribution. If you are at Seatac Airport, swing by the area across from gate D2 and you may see someone handing them out! We are working on ways to make distribution more streamlined. 

        Did you know we have a new Seattle Council #19 Facebook Group? You can request to join it by CLICKING HERE. Please note that all councils have their own pages, this is the Seattle page.  We will post updates here and also send emails.

        Try to attend the following events. We are hyper linking the events to our Facebook events page, but also including the information for those of you who are not on social media.

        • July 19, 2023: Informational Picketing at the Seattle Tacoma Airport flag pavilion. We will meet at 12:30 and the event will last until 2:00pm. There is limited parking at the AFA Office. We suggest parking at the SeaTac Light Rail station and take the train to the airport. Try to carpool if you will be parking. We also ask that you wear your uniform. 
        • August 15, 2023: Systemwide Day of Solidarity. We are still working out the details on where we will be staging and where we will send people, so keep your eyes out for future communications.

        Where is the Flag Pavilion? The Flag Pavilion is located right at the entrance to the airport, across the street from the Radisson Hotel. 

        SIGN UP HERE for JULY 19 EVENT: We have our permit for the event, however, the Port of Seattle limits the number of people who can attend. If you know you can attend, SIGN UP HERE. 

        Stay tuned for more information on our RED hot summer! We will post on our Facebook page and also send updates via email, so make sure to check your email regularly for our communications!
