OUR UNITY PRODUCED THE BEST CONTRACT EVER NEGOTIATED FOR AIRCRAFT MAINTENANCE & RELATED MEMBERS – DON’T LET AN EMPTY ‘AMFA PROMISE’ DESTROY OUR SUCCESS

After the merger of American Airlines and US Airways in 2012, the IAM and TWU fought together in solidarity with the singular focus of bargaining the best joint collective bargaining agreement for our members at the new American Airlines. Together, we proved what concession focused AMFA organizers said could not be done, fighting together and winning an industry leading contract, and we continue working jointly for our members every day.


Staff Admin:

The CS/OT/Field Trip application that requires “Flash” is changing. The new application is now active. You can still use either the old or the new application until December 9, 2020. That is when AA will terminate the old “Flash” based version. The applications point to the same database so that you do not have to worry about making changes that did not go into the new application. 

 


Membership Meeting

Due to the rising numbers of COVID-19, There will be no membership meetings for the month of December. 


Long Term Disability and Short Term Disability – Payroll Direct Deposit

Current TWU LTD policy holders:

You will need to process the premium for the policy in a different way. If  you are unsure if you are a TWU LTD policy holder, please review  your current pay stub and look for the line item “TWU LTD.” You will  receive communication in mid-late December on how to process  this premium via direct deposit through JetNet. 

*DO NOT PROCESS ANY LTD PREMIUM THROUGH JETNET BEFORE YOU RECEIVE  SPECIFIC COMMUNICATIONS FROM UBP THROUGH EMAIL,  THE TWUAAUNIONBENEFITS.COM WEBSITE OR YOUR BENEFIT  COORDINATOR.

 

New LTD enrollees (never had TWU LTD coverage):

Members seeking to enroll in the Hartford LTD for the first time will need to complete an PHA (Personal Health Application) form which is state-specific. If you don’t have the form for your state, please contact your benefit coordinator or email info@unionbenefitplanners.com for the form. Send the completed enrollment package to info@unionbenefitplanners.com as one attachment. Underwriting will take 2-4 weeks and you will receive notification once your policy has been approved. At that point you will receive instructions on the process to begin paying the premium for this policy via direct deposit on JetNet. 

*DO NOT PROCESS ANY LTD PREMIUM THROUGH JETNET BEFORE YOU RECEIVE SPECIFIC COMMUNICATIONS FROM UBP THROUGH EMAIL, THE TWUAAUNIONBENEFITS.COM WEBSITE OR YOUR BENEFIT COORDINATOR.
