American Airlines flight attendants are gearing up to protest on Wall Street during the company's 2024 Investor Day in response to unresolved wage negotiations dating back to 2014. The flight attendants, represented by the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), have been locked in a bitter dispute with the airline over fair compensation for their work.
The issue stems from a contract negotiation that took place in 2014, where American Airlines flight attendants agreed to concessions in order to help the company emerge from bankruptcy. In exchange for these concessions, the flight attendants were promised wage increases and improved working conditions. However, six years later, many flight attendants feel that the airline has failed to deliver on these promises.
According to the APFA, American Airlines flight attendants are among the lowest-paid in the industry, despite the fact that the company has seen record profits in recent years. The flight attendants argue that they deserve to be fairly compensated for their hard work and dedication to the airline.
In response to the company's failure to address their concerns, the flight attendants have decided to take their protest to Wall Street during American Airlines' Investor Day in 2024. The goal of the protest is to draw attention to their plight and pressure the company to come back to the negotiating table to resolve the wage dispute once and for all.
The APFA has stated that they are willing to work with American Airlines to find a mutually beneficial solution, but they are prepared to take further action if necessary. The flight attendants are determined to fight for fair wages and better working conditions, and they are not backing down until their demands are met.
American Airlines has yet to respond to the flight attendants' planned protest, but it is clear that tensions are running high between the two parties. As the date of the protest approaches, all eyes will be on Wall Street to see how American Airlines responds to the demands of its flight attendants.
