Important Election Clarification: The link below contains the correct eligibility information.
The site has been updated with a clarification. Active was referring to being active with AFA, not their company.
The C&B considers those on an unpaid leave of absence active with AFA during the 90-day period: Article II C.1.b(1)& (2).
Active members are entitled to all the rights and privileges of the Union including the right to vote. Article II C.1.a.
The C&B allows a member to remain active after the 90-days dues obligation. Remaining active requires the Flight Attendant to notify AFA of their desire to remain active beyond the 90-days and continue to pay dues.
This is the only way a Flight Attendant beyond the 90-day dues obligation can vote and participate in AFA activities.
As always, if you have an issue, please file at ticket at support.afaalaska.org and someone will contact you.
Fly safe.
In Solidarity,
Terry, Jake, Adam, Melinda and Megan
