It seems like the first thing a labor board member, or member of congress forcing a contract would throw out. It’s not a hill I would choose to die on, but maybe they are just trying to get the company to give them something juicy in return.

The safety aspect of very aged FA is a little concerning though. Probably a topic for a different thread though.
Always found it odd that a 80 year old flight attendant would be telling a 75 year old they were to elderly to sit in the exit row!
