Sisters and Brothers:
The Company made the unfortunate announcement that they will be furloughing Flight Attendants on the ERJ side of the operation. At this time, the length of furloughs will greatly depend on pilot staffing and Flight Attendant attrition.
While the Union did negotiate potential opportunities via the LOA #17 Preferential Hire Program, currently there are no vacancies on the CRJ or ERJ side. But as we all know, circumstances in our industry can change very quickly.
If you are one of the affected Flight Attendants, please ensure you keep your address/contact information is up to date.
The IAM will continue to meet with the Company in the coming days and weeks and will do all we can to minimize the effect this will have on our Flight Attendants. If you have any questions, please contact your local grievance representatives or Sara Gonzales at .
Please sign up for IAM District 142 emails at www.iamDL142.org if you have not already done so. This will allow you to stay informed with the most accurate and up to date information possible
In solidarity,
Sara Gonzales Marche’ Johnson-Cooper
