Alaska Airlines Flight Attendants Reject Contract Offer

The flight attendants that work for Alaska Airlines have turned down the latest proposed contract. In a prepared statement, the Association of Flight Attendants wrote that through the vote they sent a strong message to management that they expect more for their award-winning contributions to the airline. The negotiations on a new contract date back 2-years and the Association of Flight Attendants confirms the next step for the union is to re-survey the over 3-thousand flight attendants to determine their top priorities. The negotiations between the flight attendants and Alaska Airlines is being overseen by the National Mediation Board.
