        Uniform Inquiries

        December 19, 2025 09:48

        This message is for pre-merger Hawaiian Flight Attendants

        First and foremost, mahalo to everyone who takes the time to read and engage with our communications. This is the most reliable way to stay up to date with accurate, timely information that we share to support and inform our membership.

        With all of the feedback and questions we received from our Uniform Point Redemption Reminder, many of you reached out to us in the Leadership with a variety of issues regarding Uniform pieces, points balance, account login and ordering.

        For information regarding Uniforms in our Contract (CBA – Collective Bargaining Agreement) please refer to Section 6 : Uniforms.

        General Contract Information

        • Section 6.A. – Wearing of Uniform
          While on duty, Flight Attendants shall wear their uniforms in the style and manner prescribed by the Company.

        • Section 6.C.1.2.3. – Uniform Point Allowance Program

          1. Replacement of required uniform items and Company-approved optional items will be accomplished through the use of the Uniform Allowance Program (UPAP).

          2. On January 1st of each year, eligible Flight Attendants shall be credited with six hundred and fifty (650) points to be used for purchase of replacement uniform items and Company-approved optional items. One (1) point is equal to one (1) dollar. Uniform points may not be carried over from year to year.

          3. Replacement uniform items will be paid by the Company up to the annual uniform point allotment described in Paragraph C.2 of this Section.

          4. If the cost of replacement and Company-approved items exceeds the annual UPAP limit, the additional cost shall be the responsibility of the individual Flight Attendant. If the cost of a Flight Attendant’s order exceeds the value of UPAP points the Flight Attendant currently has available, the Flight Attendant shall be able to pay the difference between the order total and the UPAP point balance, for that order.

        2025 Uniform Points Expiring Soon

        December 17, 2025 14:17

        This message is for pre-merger Hawaiian Flight Attendants

        This is a quick reminder to check your uniform point balance and make sure you use any remaining points before the end of the year. Unused uniform points do not roll over in to the new year, so now is the time to place any last-minute orders you’ve been putting off.

        Take a few minutes to log in, review what you may need, and use those points before they disappear. The Affinity Website can be found in our IFS website under the Uniform & Grooming tab.

        In Solidarity,
        Mike Cabilin, LEC Uniform Committee Chair
