Tentative Agreement Reached Between PSA, AFA

Subsidiary Of US Airways Reaches Agreement With Flight Attendants

US Airways' wholly-owned express subsidiary PSA has reached a tentative agreement on a new collective bargaining agreement with Council 75 of the Association of Flight Attendants (AFA-CWA), which represents PSA's 268 flight attendants.

"We are very pleased to have reached a tentative agreement with the AFA and thank the union leadership for their dedication in support of our flight attendants," said Keith Houk, PSA president and CEO. "We would also like to express our appreciation to the National Mediation Board and Mediator Gerry McGuckin for their help in reaching this agreement."

The AFA Master Executive Council (MEC) must first approve the tentative agreement before it can be sent to its members for consideration. This first step is expected to take place in the coming weeks. "PSA Flight Attendants stood together, strong and determined to reach a mutually beneficial agreement that contains meaningful improvements. Flight Attendants were adamant that our role as first responders be recognized and that this agreement ensures our future success as an airline," said L.C. Acor, AFA PSA President.

The agreement, reached with the assistance of the National Mediation Board and Mediator Gerry McGuckin, is being prepared for distribution to the AFA members at PSA. Until the tentative agreement is presented to PSA Flight Attendants, details will not be made public.

The tentative agreement would cover the airline's 268 flight attendants, who are based in Dayton, OH, Knoxville, TN and Charlotte, NC.
