FAs have a TA
United and the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA announced a new tentative agreement that, if ratified, will provide industry-leading wages, better scheduling and other improvements for our 30,000 flight attendants.
Hopefully the details are good!

I’m happy for our FA’s that they got the contract they deserve.
While I’m very happy for them, I do recognize this will have an impact on United earnings and profit sharing. Does anyone know what the reported FA contract value is?

I’m pretty sure the 2026 profit sharing ship has sailed.

I think an argument could be made that the primary customer facing work group feeling valued with a good contract will have a net benefit in the long run despite a short term hit to profitability. The counter would probably be that in-flight management already runs a pretty tight ship and they don’t put up with a lot of bad attitudes.
