Negotiations Update #65
Progress Made in Talks; Agreement Not Reached

As we previously reported, on Friday, in a very rare move and with one day’s notice, the National Mediation Board (NMB) ordered APFA and AA management to Washington, D.C., for further negotiations to attempt to reach an agreement. After two days of intensive discussions, progress was made, but an agreement was not reached. Your negotiating committee is fighting hard to reach an agreement, but it must be an agreement that meets the needs of the membership.

We are in federal mediation under the Railway Labor Act, and the scheduling of mediation and a release into a thirty-day cooling-off period is determined by the National Mediation Board. While we are limited in the details of what we can discuss, we will be providing more information on the status of bargaining and the next steps to reach an agreement. We can say, however, that the solidarity and the credible strike threat from the membership has and continues to prompt real progress in these negotiations.

We are staying strong and united with a clear message to American Airlines management that they need to conclude these negotiations and reach the agreement that American Airlines Flight Attendants have earned.

In Solidarity,

Your APFA Negotiating Committee
