American Airlines Flight Attendant Union to Announce Strike Vote Results at Pickets Across U.S.

American’s 26,000+ Flight Attendants demand a new contract with improvements they’ve waited on for years; they head into Labor Day with pickets to demonstrate frustration with management.

EULESS, Texas (August 28th, 2023) – This Wednesday, American Airlines Flight Attendants, represented by the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), will hold a series of informational pickets at twelve Flight Attendant bases across the U.S. Announced at these pickets will be the results of the strike authorization vote, a crucial step toward striking. Contract negotiations with American Airlines have not produced a contract that includes the improvements to pay, onboard staffing, and quality of life that Flight Attendants need to see.
