AFA-CWA Files to Represent Flight Attendants at Lynx, Ryan
AFA-CWA filed petitions with the National Mediation Board for separate representation elections on behalf of the 87 flight attendants at Lynx Aviation flight and 150 at Ryan International.
Lynx Aviation is a regional carrier for Frontier Airlines and sometimes is known as Frontier Express. Ryan International is a U.S. based air-charter carrier, serving such customers as the Department of Defense, the Justice Department and tour operators.
"Over the past few months, we have heard overwhelmingly from Lynx flight attendants that they want a voice in their workplace and the benefits that come with being members of the world's largest flight attendant union," said AFA-CWA President Patricia Friend. "Ryan flight attendants are showing a strong commitment to shaping the future of their careers by joining AFA-CWA," she said, adding, "this is exactly the right move by these flight attendants, at the right time."
