Ladies and Gentlemen:
A momentous event is upon us. Today, we, your elected leadership of the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA, unanimously adopted a resolution to petition the National Mediation Board (NMB) to declare that the United/Continental merger has created a single carrier. This will trigger a Union representation election at the new United Airlines, an important first step that will allow the combined Flight Attendant workforce to join as one Union, AFA. Our strength is in our unity. Together we can make the most out of the opportunities created by the merger of United and Continental Airlines.
