By a wide margin, flight attendants at United Airlines rejected a tentative agreement that would have provided substantial pay raises and backpay, but failed to address other workplace concerns in a satisfactory way.
Ken Diaz, President of the United Airlines chapter of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA) said:
“Flight Attendants need substantial improvements as soon as possible. Our union will survey members as quickly as possible to identify the key issues Flight Attendants are ready to fight to achieve in an agreement they want to ratify. We always said no matter the outcome of the vote, we will fight forward and that is what we will do with the power of 28,000 Flight Attendants and our whole union standing together.”
