Management is wasting our hard-earned company profits on a very expensive smoke-screen called SIA. The purpose of SIA is not to make real or permanent improvements to our work rules, but simply to trick us into believing that we have a real say about our jobs as SkyWest flight attendants. SIA is not a union; it’s a substitute for a union that changes its bylaws as needed to suit its own interests. In fact, the Railway Labor Act of 1926 was passed, in part, to prevent the formation of management-controlled in-house unions.

Attention Pilots!

Our Flight Attendants have recently announced to SkyWest Management their intention to organize as a collective bargaining unit with the help of The Transport Workers of America (TWU). This is exciting news to us, as it reinforces our position that the interests of SkyWest flight crew members are best served through the collective bargaining process. The goals of the Flight Attendants are very similar to our own. They believe, as we do, that they can gain a better quality of life, better work rules, and better pay through a real and binding contract gained through the collective bargaining process outlined in the Railway Labor Act.
