CONTRACT COMPARISON MISINFORMATION?
It has been reported that the US Airways-AFA contract is more valuable than the APFA Conditional Labor Agreement. In fact, our CLA’s wage structure, even coming out of bankruptcy, is worth $17 million more annually than that of US Airways’ Flight Attendants. To be clear, if we were to adopt the rates of pay of US Airways Flight Attendants, our work group would lose more than $17 million every year. Additionally, our 401(k) contribution rate is worth $39 million more than US Airways. Again, if we were to accept the same company contributions to our retirement plans that US Airways Flight Attendants receive, we would lose out on $39 million every year. For more information on the differences at AFA-CWA, watch this short video by Steven Baumert, APFA Executive Committee member.
