This summer, the spirit of solidarity is thriving as Flight Attendants and workers all over the country unite against corporate greed and mismanagement. Our Day of Solidarity events received immense support from fellow Union Members who joined our picket lines. Their backing helped to make our message to management louder and clearer. It’s time to stand with our Flight Attendant family at Southwest as they escalate their fight for better pay and working conditions. Keep reading to find out how you can help!
Flight Attendants at Southwest Airlines, part of the Transport Workers Union (TWU), have been working under a contract that became amendable in November 2018. They have been facing the brunt of operational failures and meltdowns, while Southwest executives have been receiving bonuses, and shareholders have been given dividends and stock buybacks. Management continues to drag their feet in negotiations and has failed to bring to the table a contract that honors the dedication of Flight Attendants with fair pay and working conditions.
On September 20, Southwest Airlines Flight Attendants will hold an informational picketing event in Denver, CO, to demonstrate their unwavering commitment to fight for the contract they deserve. Plan now to stand with them in solidarity and demand that management at Southwest Airlines Make It Right for their Flight Attendants. Let’s come together and show management at Southwest that Flight Attendants and workers everywhere stand united in this fight and demand the pay and working conditions we have rightfully earned.
