Reciprocal Travel Agreements

While we have been working together to achieve enhanced travel benefits through Reciprocal Cabin Seat Agreements with other airlines, our advocacy has grown exponentially. Enhancing Flight Attendant travel benefits through reciprocal agreements has been a priority for AFA-CWA for quite some time. Our AFA-CWA Constitution and Bylaws lists reciprocal agreements as a one of our goals in negotiations at each of our Members' airlines. We now redouble our efforts to achieve this goal. This section of our website is dedicated to Reciprocal Travel Agreements.

As we have said before, reducing hassles for Flight Attendants commuting to work will benefit our airline as more employees will have the ability to focus on the success of the company rather than expending time, energy and compensation on getting to and from work. There can be no down side to reaching these open seat agreements with other airlines. Simply put, reciprocal cabin seat agreements will have a direct impact on operational integrity, employee engagement and begin to restore confidence in the decisions made by management. We encourage every Member to continue to speak out in favor of these agreements.
