American Airlines flight attendants, represented by the Association of Professional Flight Attendants (APFA), today ratified a new collective bargaining agreement. The contract will deliver significant and immediate improvements in compensation, benefits and quality-of-life provisions.

“It’s an exciting day for American’s nearly 28,000 flight attendants and our entire airline,” said American’s CEO Robert Isom. “Reaching an agreement for our flight attendants has been a top priority, and today, we celebrate achieving this important milestone. Both the APFA and company negotiating teams had a shared mission of delivering an agreement our flight attendants have earned, and I greatly appreciate their work and relentless focus.

“I want to personally thank APFA President Julie Hedrick for her leadership through these negotiations and in her daily leadership of the industry’s best flight attendants. I also wish to thank Secretary Pete Buttigieg and other partners in the Administration for their support throughout this process. And a special thanks to the American team for their exceptional work in reaching an agreement we’re all proud of.”
