Rasaq's story - "We should be able to speak up for ourselves and our colleagues without fearing that we’ll be targeted"

Earlier this year, I was scheduled to work three nights back to back. After the first night, I came home and went straight to bed so I could be fully rested for my next flight.

Dominic's story - "One of the lies I’ve heard from management is that if we have a union, it will create conflict"

How can a contract help protect Flight Attendants during IROPs? That was the topic of our latest Delta AFA Town Hall.

The need is clear. Flight Attendants at Delta shared story after story of outrageous demands by management: people who have been rerouted three times, or calls coming in at 2 and 3 in the morning to move trips up by as much as 12 hours, or Flight Attendants placed in scheduling nightmares after commuter flights are canceled without any support. Other airlines with contracts can’t even contemplate these situations.

Operational meltdowns aren't unique to Delta, but because we don't have a contract, Delta management does have the unique ability to throw our scheduling “rules” out the door for “the needs of the operation."

Delta management is set to report the airline's Quarter 2 earnings tomorrow – likely showing profits on the rise. That’s obviously good for all of us after the last few years, but it’s especially good for executives.

When the phone rings at 3am

Tell me if this sounds familiar: You’re scheduled to work a turn at 8:30 PM. Your phone rings at 3AM. It’s a scheduler, who tells you your new report time is 6AM. Yes, in 3 hours.
