The Partnership Flying award is complete for the new six-month period beginning March 2, 2010. As a result of the Partnership awards the Company will not involuntarily furlough any Flight Attendant.
The Company reviewed the viability of the Partnership Program at each domicile and determined it would not be possible to award Partnerships at all domiciles. In total, 141 Partnerships were awarded to 282 Flight Attendants based in BOS, DCA, DEN, JFK, LAX, NRT, ORD, SEA and SFO. There were no bids on file in HNL and LAS. Partnerships were not awarded in FRA, HKG and LHR because an overage did not exist. The following is a breakdown of the Partnership Flying award by domicile.

No Involuntary Furloughs
We appreciate the help of our flying partners who were able to avail themselves of the benefits afforded by the Partnership Program while saving the job of a more junior Member. Together we continue to successfully save jobs.
Partnership Waiting List
The Company will maintain a waiting list of Partnership requests and award additional Partnerships in seniority order based on the seniority of the senior Flight Attendant in the Partnership. Requests may be submitted at any time and will be awarded as the Company determines an additional need. It is also anticipated that the program will be extended beyond this 6 month period which will provide another opportunity for everyone to bid and receive a Partnership award.
