PSA and Frontier Flight Attendants Vote Overwhelmingly to Authorize Strikes
September 20, 2024 - Earlier this week, PSA Flight Attendants voted 99.2% to authorize a strike. The results come after months of insulting proposals from PSA management during contract negotiations.
“Our 99.2% vote shows PSA and American management that we will do whatever it takes to get the contract we have earned,” said Lee Wilkes, AFA PSA MEC President. “We can’t afford to wait any longer. We’ll be back at the table next week with a message for management: it’s time to Pay Us or CHAOS™. PSA Flight Attendants need improvements now!”

On Wednesday, Frontier Flight Attendants voted 99.6% to authorize a strike with 92.7% participating. The results come as management refuses to negotiate over the impact of the carrier’s business model change.
“Frontier Flight Attendants are struggling to earn a living because of management’s new ‘out-and-back’ model. The impact of this change has turned our lives and our paychecks upside down,” said Jennifer Sala, AFA Frontier President. “The harm is real and happening right now. We’re ready to do whatever it takes to bring management to the table.”
