The Master Executive Council (MEC) has been very hard at work ensuring disciplinary due process and contractual compliance on your behalf. Section 20.N.2 of the Flight Attendant Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) allows for 10 arbitration dates per year to argue discipline/termination cases and contractual issues. The ratified Joint CBA increases this amount and provides for 13 dates that will be incorporated into our 2019 schedule. AFA typically prioritizes termination cases in order to return a Flight Attendant back to work as soon as possible, however we seek a balance between discipline and contractual cases. AFA and management mutually decide which cases to arbitrate next based on many factors. The following is a list of open contractual grievances.
