The Association of Flight Attendants-CWA says it has won a union election at United Continental Holdings Inc.
United and Continental merged last year. The election was needed to decide which union would represent the combined flight attendant workforce.

The 15,000 flight attendants at United are already in the Association of Flight Attendants. That union now adds 9,200 flight attendants from Continental Airlines. They had previously been in the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers.
Vote totals were not immediately available.
