6.20.24 – Negotiations Update #62: Negotiations Conclude With No Agreement

Negotiations Update #62
Negotiations Conclude With No Agreement

Weeks of intensive mediation at the National Mediation Board ended without an agreement. We do not believe further negotiations will be scheduled prior to the National Mediation Board determining to release the parties into a thirty-day cooling-off period.

All American Airlines Flight Attendants should prepare for an upcoming strike. A digital copy of the strike handbook is available on the APFA website here, and a copy has been mailed to your address on file with APFA. The strike command center is available to answer your questions. Click here for information on how to reach a Union Representative at the strike command center.

Management had every chance to reach an agreement over the last six weeks of mediated talks. While we moved closer on some of the other components of the agreement, we remain apart on the key issues of the date of signing wage increase and retroactive pay. Management’s proposals continue to be unacceptable, and your negotiating committee has been firm that we need a contract that meets the needs of our workgroup. 

During this period of intensive mediation, your negotiations team pushed management hard to reach an agreement and will continue the fight until we achieve the contract we deserve. Our strength at the bargaining table comes from the solidarity of American Airlines Flight Attendants and support from Union workers across the country.

More information about the next steps will be forthcoming.

In Solidarity,

Your APFA Negotiating Committee
