2021 Annual Enrollment Now Open Until November 6

2021 Annual Enrollment runs now through November 6th. You will have until 11:59 p.m. CT on Friday, November 6 to elect your 2021 benefits.

Go to my.aa.com/annual-enrollment, where you will click the Enroll Now link on the page to enroll in your 2021 benefits.

For those Flight Attendants affected by the Company’s reduction in force or have participated in a Voluntary Early Out Program (VEOP), please refer to the furlough packet or VEOP packet for more information about your benefits eligibility.

If you have elected to continue coverage through COBRA, you will also receive Annual Enrollment materials directly from Alight.

Flight Attendants taking an Extended Voluntary Leave of Absence (EVLOA) or Short Term Leave of Absence (STLOA) that was offered in response to COVID-19, can make changes to any benefits during Annual Enrollment.

For most unpaid leaves, if you are enrolled in medical, dental or vision coverage, you may make changes to only that coverage during Annual Enrollment — if you are current on your direct bill payments.

DENTAL: MONTHLY PAYCHECK CONTRIBUTIONS

VISION: MONTHLY PAYCHECK CONTRIBUTIONS

If you are married to someone else in the Company, you can enroll in medical, dental and vision coverage separately or as a dependent.

Be sure to compare costs — it will cost more to be enrolled as a dependent than if you enroll alone as a team member. If you’re already covered under your American spouse’s coverage and want to be covered as a team member instead, call the Benefits Service Center.

If you’re leaving the Company and are married, consider enrolling in your spouse’s plan, if available. In most cases, your termination of employment would be considered a qualifying life event, allowing your spouse to make changes to coverage mid-year.

As a reminder, you will be able to get your flu shot at the Company’s onsite clinics and at large work locations around the system. Learn more and find the schedule for upcoming events here.

Once again, you have until 11:59 p.m. CT on Friday, November 6 to elect your 2021 benefits by going to my.aa.com/annual-enrollment.
