This is John Ward, APFA President, with a Special Hotline Message for Thursday, September 11, 2003.
Today marks the two year annniversay of the attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. For us, September 11, 2001 will always be remembered as the day we lost thirteen of our finest aboard American flights 11 and 77. Our thoughts and prayers continue to be with the families and friends of all those who died that day.

Although today is a sad day for us all, it’s also a time for those who were close to those who died to recall the good times. I didn’t know personally any of the flight attendants who died on September 11. Having attended memorials both in Boston and in D.C.I can tell you that those who did testified to just how special our colleagues were. However you choose to remember September 11, whether through quiet reflection or by attending a memorial service, please be there for each other today. Thank you for calling.
