For those who wish to avoid certain cities, it is necessary to update your bid as we have an additonal bidding option for 'Avoid Landings In'. The 'Avoid Landings In' bid option now has a checkbox for "Counting Deadhead Legs".

We do have pairings which include a deadhead into a city, which is not a landing being operated by the crew member, followed by the crew member operating a departure from that city. In order to completely avoid this, please update your bids by checking the "Counting Deadhead Legs" option. For those of you who wish to avoid Canada and/or Mexico, making this bid change is a must.

ASSOCIATION OF FLIGHT ATTENDANTS - CWA

The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) is the world's largest labor union organized by flight attendants for flight attendants. AFA represents nearly 60,000 flight attendants at 21 airlines, serving as a voice for flight attendants at their workplace, in the industry, in the media and on Capitol Hill. Simply put, the goal of flight attendants who become part of AFA-CWA is to negotiate better pay, benefits, working conditions and work rules at their airline, and to improve their safety on the job.

AFA-CWA negotiates the best flight attendant contracts in the industry, maintaining and improving wages, benefits and working conditions for flight attendants.

AFA-CWA has strength in numbers and a professional staff to assist flight attendants with workplace, career and interpersonal concerns.

AFA-CWA is a democratic union representing flight attendants at every type of carrier. All AFA-CWA officers are flight attendants who solicit member input on policy and financial decisions.

AFA-CWA is the only flight attendant union solely representing flight attendant's concerns affiliated with the AFL-CIO, the 13-million-member American labor federation.

AFA-CWA shares information and strategies, working in solidarity with flight attendant unions around the world through the International Transport Workers Federation (ITF).
