Dear Members,
AFA BOD Update - Agenda Item #3
News from the BOD
| The members in
committee reconvened last night after the BOD recessed for the evening.
This was to further discuss Agenda #3 and to send a "FOR" or
"AGAINST" vote to the floor of the BOD today. At approximately
8pm local (11pm EST) last night the committee voted 9 to 1 AGAINST Agenda
#3 and recommended a "NO" vote to the floor of the BOD today.
The agenda item was presented to the floor around 3pm local time today
and a motion was made to table this agenda item (tabling an agenda
item means that once the BOD meeting is adjourned today, the Agenda Item #
3 can not be brought forward and is closed). DATE OF HIRE
will prevail in the merger of our seniority lists. |

After the tabling of the agenda item,
the America West MEC introduced a letter of agreement between the AMW MEC and
the USA MEC which clearly reaffirms the commitment to DATE OF HIRE as
contained in the AFA constitution and bylaws. This letter also stipulates that
the Company (USA & USA/AMW) remain uninvolved in the Seniority
Integration
We will be following the section of the
C&B policy that governs the merger of seniority lists, which is DATE
OF HIRE, and collective bargaining agreements between the two merged
carriers.
We wish to thank all of the flight attendants
that sent letters to the Board of Directors. The emails and letters helped the
Board understand how strong we felt about date of hire in ours or any merger of
AFA carriers.
Thank you again for all of your support.
Mike Flores MECP and your MEC/LEC Officers
