The labor union representing the carrier’s flight attendants is pushing for progress in contract negotiations.
The carrier currently relies on partners such as Republic and SkyWest.
The proposed contract would give flight attendants their first raises in close to six years.
The deal secures pay increases and other benefits, according to the AFA.
The AFA-CWA said members are being brought back to help resolve “operational issues.”
The carrier’s pilots could be considering a similar move.
The APFA slammed executives over the carrier’s latest earnings report.
The carrier’s senior leaders have pledged to take the same pay reduction as their pilot group.
The base, expected to open in the first quarter of 2026, will be the airline’s 12th and is projected to create more than 200 pilot and flight attendant jobs.
The ultra-low-cost carrier said the move is intended to bring staffing levels in line with its fleet size and anticipated flying schedule.
