Click Here to read TWU's successful seniority integration for dispatchers during the Alaska Air purchase of Virgin America

The TWU is America’s Fighting Union. We have a proven track record of negotiating good contracts that protect seniority, enhance scope, and prioritize the interests of workers. During two acquisitions, we secured seniority integration that was better than dovetail for workers at the acquiring carrier. We’re ready to fight for seniority integration, the best possible paid time off policy, compensation, and more for workers. 

In past negotiations, AMFA has fallen short of delivering contracts s that prioritize workers’ needs. Need proof? Just look at some of the provisions in the contract AMFA negotiated for workers at Southwest Airlines:

• There is no minimum employer 401k contribution
• Overtime is mandatory, even on days off
• 80% of Southwest’s maintenance budget is spent on outsourced work
• The airline outsources eight lines of heavy maintenance to foreign vendors
• The minimum headcount is just 2.75 mechanics per aircraft

AMFA lacks the experience necessary to win a contract that is best for JetBlue Tech Ops workers like you. AMFA has never negotiated a first-time contract or negotiated a contract with JetBlue – the TWU has successfully done both. 

You deserve to be represented by a union like the TWU that will fight for your job and hold the line against outsourcing. The TWU won the best contract in the industry for maintenance workers at American Airlines. That’s the power of the nation’s largest airline union. 

We represent over 155,000 transport workers across the United States and have 85+ years of experience empowering them with economic security, job stability, and protections that keep good union jobs here in the United States. 

We’re committed to advocating for YOU throughout the entire acquisition process and beyond.
