Flight Attendants

Air Canada’s flight attendants overwhelmingly rejected a proposed contract worked out by their employer and their labor union last month after a strike.

Air Canada and the union representing its flight attendants have reached a tentative agreement, ending a three-day strike that grounded thousands of flights.

Air Canada called off plans to resume flights Sunday as its striking flight attendants announced they will defy a government-issued return-to-work order.

Air Canada plans to cancel 500 flights by Friday as its flight attendants prepare to go on strike, which could completely shutter operations by Saturday.

Air Canada said it will begin canceling flights as its flight attendants prepare to strike, raising the possibility of a full shutdown by the weekend.

The union and United reached a tentative deal in May that included immediate raises of at least 26%, a one-time retroactive bonus, and an additional holiday.

A federal jury found Tiron Alexander, 35, guilty of wire fraud and entering into a secure area of an airport under false pretenses.

The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) has announced details on its new tentative agreement with United flight attendants.

Both the union and United called the contract “industry-leading.” The two have been negotiating a new contract for around four years. 

The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA) has stated that United is “demanding concessions from flight attendants” while announcing its new interiors.
