Negotiations Update There was no negotiating taking place with American Airlines this week. Also as of this posting there are no future dates scheduled. Looks like more discrimination for our TWU membership. Robert Isom has told me that day after Thanksgiving will be given to the IAM but the TWU membership can kiss his you…
Brothers and Sisters, In its continued efforts to stymie negotiations for Joint Collective Bargaining Agreements with the TWU-IAM Association, American Airlines is pushing forward with its frivolous lawsuit in a Fort Worth, TX Federal Court. A calendar has been set by the court for the parties to meet in two pre-trial settlement conferences during the…
May 30, 2019 As was said earlier, our negotiations with American are not only important for our members, but for the whole airline industry. The Company is currently near the top of their outsourcing of work maximums established through bankruptcy. Our fight on SCOPE is simple, we are fighting for our members’ seniority to improve…
Brothers and Sisters, The TWU-IAM Association today submitted a letter to the National Mediation Board (NMB) requesting they compel American Airlines to fulfill their obligation to bargain with The Association.

Fact: The Mediators assigned by the NMB were informed by the lead Company negotiator that he…
Brothers and Sisters, THE TWU/IAM Association Executive Negotiating Committee this week met in full session with American Airlines under the auspices of National Mediation Board Mediators, Jim Mackenzie and Eva Durham, in San Francisco, CA. In addition to the executive committee, the full negotiating committees were also in San Francisco to support and caucus with…
Brothers and Sisters, The TWU-IAM Association was notified this week that the National Mediation Board has assigned two mediators to our negotiations. The mediators have indicated that, due to Federal budget concerns and scheduling, they will not schedule mediated negotiating sessions until after October. The Association has demanded to meet with American with or without…
TO: AA Membership Locals 501 — 591 RE: American Airlines Doug Parker & Robert Isom continue to tell their fantasy story on-line, rather than participating at the negotiating table. While both have promised our members “the best contract in the industry,” neither has actively engaged in our negotiations to reach that objective. While a mediator…
