AMFA Local 32

After a week of mediation, including many long nights and early mornings, the Aircraft Mechanics Fraternal Association (AMFA) and Southwest Airlines have reached an Agreement in Principle (AIP) on Saturday, March 16, 2019, toward a new collective bargaining agreement.

Joint Update March 11, 2019 Technician Integrated Seniority List (ISL) and Transition Agreement (TA) discussions continued last week. Representatives from Alaska and AMFA met on Wednesday afternoon to continue those discussions. We agree that we are not at an impasse and will continue to meet and work through the issues.

State of Managerial Emergency

State of Managerial Emergency The last few weeks have highlighted how poorly upper management at Southwest Airlines is performing, how it truly views labor, how ineffective its communication and execution of our daily operation are, and how everyone at OUR airline should be concerned.

State of Operational Emergency

AMFA–SWA Members: By letter dated February 15, 2019, Southwest’s Sr. Director Tech Ops Production Lonnie Warren declared a State of Operational Emergency which imposes extra-contractual demands with respect to the services of our Aircraft Maintenance Technicians and Inspectors with the explicit threat of termination if they fail to comply.

Dear Mr. Gary Kelly: The degradation of Southwest’s aircraft maintenance safety culture has been recognized by the FAA, reputable media sources, and Landon Nitschke himself. Your personal involvement in restoring Southwest’s safety culture is long past due.
