Negotiating Committee Update – *Special Video* Concessions and Furloughs

by | Dec 11, 2020 | Negotiations, News, Union Business

Your Negotiating Team, along with our attorney Lucas Middlebrook and economist Dan Akins, met today to produce a video update. A more in-depth view of the proposals from the Company, as well as an overall view of the current state of our negotiations, was discussed. 

We look forward to addressing your questions at the Membership meetings on Tuesday, November 17, and Wednesday, November 18.

As TWU Local 556 continues to advocate on behalf of Southwest Airlines Flight Attendants, securing an extension of the CARES Act is incredibly important. This would help avoid furloughs through March 2021. It is strongly recommended that all Members reach out to your representatives to make our voices heard. If you have already reached out, please do so again, and ask your family and friends to do the same. Please click here to email your representative.
