Holiday APFA Live Messaging + Tools & Support for Schedule Disruptions

Wednesday, November 26, 2025

As we head into the holiday weekend, forecasts indicate the potential for wintry weather that could impact operations. We want you to be aware of the tools available to help you navigate any potential schedule disruptions, as well as where to find support.

Holiday APFA Live Messaging

‘On the Job’ tab on APFA.org

The ‘On the Job‘ tab on the landing page of APFA.org contains links to help answer time-sensitive questions when you’re out flying, and is easily accessed from your mobile device. Information on rescheduling and pay protections, as well as step-by-step instructions on how to calculate when you go illegal may be found here:

Are you canceled or being rescheduled? 

Our rescheduling language is broken down into different scenarios, including:

• Prior to Report: Full sequence cancellation
• Prior to Report: The first leg(s) of your trip has cancelled, and your sequence has a deadhead or live segments remaining.
• Prior to Report: First segment(s) cancelled, no notification from crew scheduling.
• After Report but Prior to Origination: Sequence changes (prior to first flight).
• After Origination: Sequence changes.
• Last Sequence/ Last Series of Sequences for the month.

Click here to review the latest Rescheduling Reminders Hotline, which outlines the language that applies to your specific scenario and clarifies your responsibilities under the CBA.

Hotel/ Transportation Issues

Should you have issues with hotel accommodations or transportation, we now have the ability to contact hotel/limo using the Electronic Communication System (ECS) as opposed to calling. Flight Attendants may use ECS to request a hotel room, transportation, or to report a more complicated issue and request a call-back for help. Please refer to the July 24, 2025 APFA Hotline for more information.

We wish you and your loved ones a safe, peaceful, and happy holiday season.
