Signed,

Your UAL Cohort
 
Thank-you so much! I was looking for this yesterday.

Your hourly compensation is a bit lower than our T/A (aka F/A for Forced Agreement) but many of your work rules are preserved.

I have a feeling ours (APFA) is going to be rejected.

If it had looked like this, it might have passed.

We''ll know pretty soon.

FA Mikey, AA Stew, FlydCoop, et al:

I was wondering if you could post AA''s new hourly book rates for F/A''s. Also, is there a pay differentential between domestic and international? Thanks for any info.

I tried to copy from a spreadsheet, but it comes out completely discombobulated, so you''ll have to settle for this. Domestic rates, hourly/overtime go from 50.59/58.18 with overtime starting at 67 hrs, to 42.70/49.11, with overtime starting at 70 hrs. International goes from 54.05/62.16 to 45.62/52.46. This is top of pay scale, which is 15 yrs.
