Let's put this to rest.
JimnTX: Can you provide any insight into why several AA f/a's have visited the Delta board since this election was announced and have clearly laid out their distaste for AFA? Is there a particular circumstance that promped this..did AFA do something to upset some of your group? Is it just that you guys don't like unions that aren't In-House? I'm just mystified by it.
Luke:
Here is my guess why some AA flight attendants do not like the afa.
In the early 1990's, the afa was planning to raid APFA. On the afa website, there was a petition or something like that to garner AA F/A support for the afa. When APFA got that contract in the early 1990's, the afa went away.
With the afa's goal to represent all flight attendants, AA flight attendants will eventually be in the sights of the afa.
If Delta stays non union, it will always be the first target. If Delta goes afa, AA will be the next target.
