Last I read there had been 5 out of 10 meetings and FL was saying DOH or nothing. All of a sudden I saw that on google news today. Perhaps someone can give some details.

"The unions said the pact provides seniority enhancements and job security for Southwest flight attendants and boosts wages and benefits for AirTran flight attendants. Southwest Airlines also will open an Atlanta flight attendant base."
It'll take a little while until real details come out.

Got this from one of my union reps:
"Unions representing flight attendants at Southwest Airlines and Air Tran Airways have reached a tentative agreement with each other and the airlines on a new common contract. The agreement announced Monday provides for economic sweeteners for both groups of flight attendants and a way to integrate the Air Tran employees into the Southwest seniority system. The latter was accomplished by Southwest agreeing to open a flight attendant base in Atlanta, where the bulk of the Air Tran flight attendants are now based. Their seniority at the base will be based on date of hire. Terms of the agreement call for Southwest to add two-and-one-half years to each of its fglight attendants seniority, increasing pay and benefits. Air Tran employees (meaing in this case, flight attendants) will see their pay and benefits scale bumped up to Southwest levels. Southwest announced an agreement to acquire Air Tran in September 2010 and completed the deal on May 2. Pilots of the two airlines approved their seniority and integration plan last month."

I stand corrected on the details leaking out slowly prior to ratification. It seems that AFA has the agreement on their Council 57 (FL FA's) website.

Do you have a link to the AFA web site?
