Grateful for Our Flight Attendant Family

Dear Flying Partners, Friends and Family,

In November 1963, President John F. Kennedy, published his Thanksgiving Proclamation 17 days before our nation mourned the loss of our President. In it he wrote:

Elections are always hard but they are just one day and every day is a day we can make a difference.
