AFA Frontier Flight Attendants File for Federal Mediation
May 31, 2024—This week, AFA Frontier Flight Attendants filed for federal mediation with the National Mediation Board to resolve the dispute created by the company’s business model change and the immediate and drastic impact on Flight Attendants.
“Frontier Management is uprooting the lives of Frontier Flight Attendants. It is unsustainable and fundamentally wrong to ignore the impact on Flight Attendants. We won’t stand for it,” said Jennifer Sala, AFA Frontier President. “We are pushing ahead with our rights under the Railway Labor Act and we will not stop until management ensures workers are not bearing the brunt of this change.”
“Frontier’s new business model is shifting company costs to frontline workers, said Sara Nelson, AFA President. “The change in work lives and pay is staggering. The harm to Flight Attendants is immediate and requires urgent bargaining to address the impact of the new business model. We are confident this issue can be resolved in short order with the assistance of the National Mediation Board, and the process provided by the Railway Labor Act for dispute resolution.”
