That’s interesting because a heavily unionized airline has won the JD Power award for the same category Delta is in 8 years in a row. When was the last time Delta won the JD Power award?

Plus, how dare workers actually stand up and demand better working conditions. To give you an example Delta flight attendants are the only FA group out of all the mainline groups to not even have coverage for braces. How’s that for smiles in the aisles? Of course you don’t care because your ALPA negotiated dental plan still gives you coverage for braces right?

This would be funny if it wasn't so pathetic!

Good luck DALFA and your FA sisters and brothers!

We have the same dental plan option that you have. The only thing we have different than the FA’s, in the area of medical/dental , is a pilot medical option.

Well played!
The AFLCIO has nothing do do with that. It’s just an internet meme. Openly calling for violence against executives would land the ALF-CIO in an incredible amount of ****

You also have a pilot dental option with lower premiums and higher coverage. Look at your benefits brochure.
