New Hire Opportunities Available To Involuntary Furloughed Flight Attendants
The Association of Flight Attendants has reached an agreement with the company whereby America West will offer flight attendant positions to involuntary furloughed flight attendants on the US Airways seniority list. The offering of positions will start with the most senior involuntary furloughed flight attendant and the process will continue until the most junior involuntary furloughed flight attendant has TWICE been offered a position. MidAtlantic flight attendants with recall rights to US Airways will not be subjected to the freeze/hold provisions of the MidAtlantic Airways Transitional Flow Procedures letter and are therefore eligible to participate in this offering.
The deadline for your application is Noon, EST, January 30, 2006.
If you have any questions, please call your local officers.
Thank You,
Ann Crowley LEC President Council 89 AFA-CWA AFL-CIO 704-527-0325 Office
