7.24.14 – (LAA) – Press Release – American Flight Attendants Welcome Another Record Profit

“It’s hard to describe just how proud the Flight Attendants are of our company,” said Laura Glading, APFA President. “Many APFA members lived through the darkest days of American Airlines. But together the frontline employees and the face of the company turned our airline around; today we all get to celebrate the new American’s continued success.”

“American’s performance out of the gate is a testament to how hard all of the employees worked to make this merger smooth,” Glading said. “The company has tremendous upside; including profit sharing in our new contract will ensure that each Flight Attendant benefits from American’s success.”

The Flight Attendants at the new American have been in bargaining with management since April of this year, working within a defined path to a joint contract by the fall.
