Senior Campaign Lead
AFA-CWA Delta Flight Attendant Organizing Drive

Based in Atlanta, GA

On November 1, 2019, after receiving thousands of requests from Delta Flight Attendants, the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA (AFA-CWA) announced that the union is putting its full resources behind efforts to organize a union with AFA-CWA. This campaign is the largest in the country with 25,000 Delta Flight Attendants seeking to gain a voice, respect and fairness on the job. Delta is the only U.S.-based mainline carrier where Flight Attendants are not represented by a union. Even though the airline is producing double the profits of its nearest competitor, Delta Flight Attendants receive on average more than ten thousand dollars less than Flight Attendants working the same type of operation with an AFA contract.

This campaign is not only the biggest in the country, it is a major organizing campaign in the south at a southern-based company. Delta Air Lines, Inc. is a U.S. legacy airline headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, where approximately one third of the 25,000 Flight Attendants are based. The airline operates over 5,000 flights daily and serves more than 300 destinations. Delta has 17 Flight Attendant bases and focus cities including Atlanta, Boston, Cincinnati, Chicago, Detroit, Fort Lauderdale/Miami, Honolulu, Los Angeles, Minneapolis-St. Paul, New York, Orlando, Portland, Raleigh-Durham, Salt Lake City, San Francisco, Seattle, and Tampa.
