Someone at the country’s biggest flight attendant union has maybe been watching a little too much RuPaul’s Drag Race, because this sass is quite something…
For reference, Endeavor Air is Delta’s wholly owned regional subsidiary, where flight attendants are paid significantly less than their mainline (non-unionized) counterparts, and also don’t get to take part in Delta’s profit sharing perk.
The union can negotiate a new contract in 2027, and is hoping for significant wage increases. The union is emphasizing the importance of flight attendants not being disciplined over their conduct and onboard behavior, ahead of these negotiations (which… seems a little random… but okay).
The union reminded flight attendants that their job is to inform passengers of the rules, and not to enforce them:
“The primary focus on all of the rules and regulations that we ask passengers to follow is to inform, not enforce.”
The memo reportedly continued with these rather strange points:
“We do not get paid to argue. Just stop. There’s absolutely no need to be extra. This is not within your job scope. Act your wage. You’re a Flight Attendant, not a Red Coat.”
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on One Mile at a Time.
