The activities of our union are overseen by working Flight Attendants who serve as activists and leaders. We are driven by the priorities identified by our members based in Baltimore, Washington Dulles, Dallas, Las Vegas, Seattle and Yokota. Under the Railway Labor Act, which givers terms and conditions of employment in the airline industry, our contract becomes amendable December 2022. This means we will be able to negotiate changes and improvements to the contract, also known as the "CBA" (collective bargaining agreement).
