United Flight Attendants Look To The Future With Continental

FAs Say They Want To Build The "World's Premier Airline"

Greg Davidowitch, president of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, AFL-CIO (AFA-CWA) at United Airlines, which represents some 16,000 United Airlines flight attendants, issued a statement on the close of the merger transaction between Continental and United airlines last Friday.

"United Airlines flight attendants are eager to join with Continental flight attendants as we take part in building the world's premier airline," said Davidowitch.  "We welcome Jeff Smisek as our new CEO and we look forward a collaborative relationship with all of United's new management to make our airline the best place to work and the best place to fly.  The opportunities for United Airlines and all of its constituents – workers, passengers and shareholders – are great."

More than 55,000 flight attendants, including the 16,000 flight attendants at United, form the AFA, which is claims is the world's largest flight attendant union. AFA is part of the 700,000 member Communications Workers of America, AFL-CIO.
