AA Pay Comp has advised they have completed the pay protection process for losses due directly to MD80 inspection cancellations. Pay protection for missed trips (eg. from inability to commute) which resulted from the MD80 inspection cancellations may take until May 8. Your HI2 for April is only available for a few more days, so please review (and print) it as soon as possible to ensure your pay protection is reflected. Should you have a discrepancy, please contact AA Pay Comp. If you still can't resolve it please notify the APFA Contract Department at contract@apfa.org.
 
MD80 Cancellation Agreement
APFA and AA reached agreement on pay protection for FAs whose trips were cancelled or who were unable to commute as a result of the April MD80 cancellations. Agreement has also been reached to restore vacation days to those FAs who used PVDs to compensate for time lost at the end of March due to the MD80 reinspections.
