December 13 Day of Action #EnoughCuts
United Flight Attendants on Thursday, December 13 are protesting United’s newly announced staffing cut to match lower standards at American and Delta. The airline says pre-plating meals for business class passengers alleviates the need for one of aviation’s first responders.
Pre-plated meals are not a substitute for Flight Attendants in the aisles.
Flight Attendant staffing is about safety and service. We will not accept the lowest level for you in either case. With the right staffing, we can prepare for the worst and plan for the best on every flight. We know you feel the difference. We can board planes faster and address concerns sooner. Fewer Flight Attendants means carts more frequently block the aisle, food and beverages arrive later and sit on your tray tables longer. When emergencies happen, we need enough crew to safely respond.

The flying experience will continue to erode as long as airlines only answer to Wall Street. We are airlines, not hedge funds. The people on planes matter! Help us call on United to invest in the people on United Airlines’ flights - and stand up for increased staffing across the industry.
