The war in Iran directly affects our jobs, from increased security risks because of greater desires to harm Americans to financial instability in our oil-dependent industry. Our union unanimously passed a resolution calling for the end of the war in Iran at our recent Board of Directors Convention.

Join us today at No Kings Day events nationwide. We stand together to enforce our contracts. Our constitution is our contract with our government. This is about enforcing our rights and freedoms as defined by our constitution. www.mobilize.us?q=No+Kings+A...

We cannot allow workers to be used as pawns in political games. The fact that we have let TSA Officers work without pay twice in one year puts an unacceptable strain on workers whose jobs require total focus and no distractions.

@flyingwithsara.bsky.social joined ABC News earlier today to make it lear Flight Attendants will not work in a system that is unsafe. Pay TSA now! abcnews.com/video/131445...

United Flight Attendants have reached a Tentative Agreement!

Today is #EqualPayDay, the day that shows how far into 2026 women must work, on average, to earn what men earned in 2025. Union membership is key to reducing the gender wage gap because our union contracts level the playing field. Women: join unions, run unions.

Our hearts are with the crew and passengers of Jazz Air Canada Flight 8646 and their friends and family. We are offering love and support to our union siblings Air Line Pilots Association, Int’l and @cupescfp.bsky.social AFA EAP is available to any crew or family in need 800-424-2406

Today, AFA, @apfaunity.bsky.social, Teamsters Local Union 135 and IAM union leaders representing more than 100K of aviation‘s first responders released the following stmt demanding TSA Officers be paid to keep our airports secured w/ the people who are trained to do so, not adding the havoc of ICE.

ICYMI: United AFA Council 21 Flight Attendants held a pop up picket across Washington, D.C. in advance of negotiations scheduled at the NMB next week. Let’s get this Contract Now! youtube.com/shorts/0M4nV...

Flight Attendants defined the serious security threat of not paying TSA in 2019. We are sounding the alarm again today. Flight Attendants cannot do our jobs if TSA cannot do theirs. Pay TSA Now! www.youtube.com/shorts/ufgo8...

TSA Officers have been working without pay for over a month. Americans must demand this administration pay TSA right now. Refusing to do so is putting our safety and security at extreme risk.

Eid Mubarak to all Flight Attendants celebrating Eid al-Fitr around the world! Wishing you happiness, peace, and health.

Today, United Flight Attendants held a pop up picket across Washington, D.C. in advance of negotiations scheduled at the NMB next week. Council 21 hosted a surprise traveling picket and the members who showed up on short notice represented all of us. It’s time for a deal! #ContractNow

United AFA Council 21 fired up and ready to go. We are here! We are loud! It’s time for a deal! Contract Now!

A Flight Attendant is Running for Congress! Since becoming a MN State House Representative in 2021, AFA-CWA member and Union Flight Attendant Kaela Berg has been a leading force behind many pro-union and working family legislation.

One of our own is running for Congress! @kaela15.bsky.social is a MN State Rep. & 22yr Endeavor AFA Flight Attendant. She knows our career and has fought for us in MN. Kaela is holding a virtual meet & greet for AFA members. Join us TOMORROW, 3/17 at 6 PM ET on Zoom. RSVP: zoom.us/meeting/regi...

If you're planning a St. Patrick's Day meal or celebration, make sure it's union-made in America! Check out more ideas > aflcio.org/StPatricksDay

Our flight attendants ensure we get where we are going safely. The least we can do is make sure they have the wages and benefits they deserve. That's why I joined the Association of Flight Attendants (AFA) rally to call for a fair contract!! Let's get it done.

AFA Horizon Flight Attendants picketed at PDX to demand a fair Contract. Members of AFA’s Board of Directors representing all AFA airlines and @repdexteror.bsky.social joined them. Together, we made sure Alaska and Horizon management heard us: #ContractNow

Thank you @repdexteror.bsky.social for standing with us on the picket line at PDX this afternoon. Horizon AFA Flight Attendants and Flight Attendants around the industry are united for fair contracts and we will not stop fighting for the wages and work protections we’ve earned!

Proud to have our Portland, OR @afacwa.org convention at a @unitehere.org hotel! Thanks for the warm welcome Union family! Check fairhotel.org before booking your hotel, ask for daily housekeeping, and tip hotel staff every day! #1u

Time to Spring Forward! Daylight Saving Time starts Sunday, March 8, at 2AM local time. Hawaii & Arizona (except the Navajo Nation) do not observe daylight saving time, & neither do the territories of American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico & the USVI

37 years ago, on March 4, 1989, all of the frontline of Eastern Airlines went on strike to take on Frank Lorenzo. We remember the strikers today and always - and we continue to fight forward for our careers.

Wishing you a Holi filled with love, laughter, and beautiful memories.

United Airlines Flight 585 was a scheduled passenger flight on March 3, 1991, from Denver to Colorado Springs, Colorado, carrying 20 passengers and 5 crew members on board.

Our union is working with airlines to ensure all crews currently stranded in various cities in the Middle East are able to return home. Some Flight Attendants were working commercial flights, while others were operating aircraft on military charter.

Women: Join Unions. Run Unions. It’s a great day! @steelworkers.bsky.social @afacwa.org

During Women’s History Month, we honor the founding Flight Attendants of our Union. These fearless women provided the foundation for AFA to fight against discrimination on the job including age, weight, race, marital status, having children, for men to have the same rights as women.

United CEO Scott Kirby says he loves Flight Attendants & wants them to have the best contract at “the best airline in the history of aviation.” But delayed negotiations continue because he’s demanding FAs pay for improvements. That's not how you get the best! It’s either one or the other, Scott.

The ROTOR Act just died on the House floor. I don’t want to look in the eyes of another family member who lost a child or parent or spouse. I’m really disappointed and looking at next steps of how we can get the right legislation passed.

“It is unconscionable that the House failed to pass the ROTOR Act today. This legislation was the clearest and most direct way to avoid midair collisions." @flyingwithsara.bsky.social said. Read our full statement: afacwa.org/afa-statemen...

Today, we remember the 7 crew and 51 passengers lost in the crash of Eastern Air Lines Flight 304, on February 25, 1964. Flight 304 was flying from New Orleans to Washington Dulles when it went down in Lake Ponchartrain, Louisiana, due to pitch failure.

On February 24, 1989, a B747 operating as United Flight 811 lost a cargo door shortly after leaving Honolulu. The explosive decompression that followed blew out several rows of seats, with nine passengers losing their lives.

Tomorrow (Feb. 24, 2026) S.2503, the Rotorcraft Operations Transparency and Oversight Reform (ROTOR) Act, will be up for a vote in the U.S. House of Representatives. AFA urges a YES vote on S.2503. 1/4

On February 23, 2019, Atlas Air Flight 3591 crashed into a Texas bay as it was preparing to land at IAH. Three people, including Atlas Air Pilot Ricky Blakely, Atlas Air First Officer Conrad Jules Aska, and Mesa Airlines Captain Sean Archuleta died in the February 23 crash.

A little over one year ago, on February 17, 2025, Endeavor AFA Flight Attendants performed a successful evacuation of Delta Endeavor Flight 4819. Even on an inverted aircraft, the crew of 4819 made it possible for every passenger to get out of the plane. We are aviation’s first responders.

Congratulations @uaw.org members at VW! You’re an inspiration to workers everywhere! ✊

AFA Celebrates Black History Month! Willa Brown, the first African American woman in the U.S. to be a licensed pilot, earned her pilot's license in 1937. In 1946, she also became the first African American woman to run for Congress.

Ramadan Mubarak! Wishing all who observe an easy fast. We hope this holy season is full of light, love, and joy for you and your family.

Happy Lunar New Year to Flight Attendants and families! We hope the Year of the Horse brings happiness, prosperity, and good fortune to you and your loved ones.

Collectively, airline crews are classified as the highest-exposed radiation workers in the US. AFA President @flyingwithsara.bsky.social recently sat down with investigative journalists to talk about the harms of radiation exposure and the lack of protections and regulations.

Happy Valentine's Day 💞✈️ Share these with your Valentine!

Some welcome news! We’ve been pushing hard to get Spirit Flight Attendants back to the line and management just announced the recall of 500 Flight Attendants back to the line to help the operation.

We pause on the 17th remembrance to honor those aboard Colgan Air Flight 3407, February 12, 2009. In memory of the Colgan Flight 3407 Crew: Flight Attendant Matilda Quintero Flight Attendant Donna Prisco Captain Marvin Renslow First Officer Rebecca Lynne Shaw Captain Joseph Zuffoletto, (off-duty)

Our @newsguild.org siblings have seen egregious union busting since the beginning of the year. @flyingwithsara.bsky.social rallied at the #SaveThePost rally this week! Billionaire WaPo owner Jeff Bezos that we stand with the workers at the Washington Post and we are disgusted by his boundless greed.

We had a good discussion with @flyingwithsara.bsky.social, President of @afacwa.org, at this week's @laborcaucus.house.gov meeting. Flight attendants keep us safe in the air, and they deserve fair pay, strong protections, and respect on the job.
