News roundup - FAs push for higher wages and Tesla may be replaced in the Mag 7

CNBC: Pilots got their payday. Now flights attendants are pushing airlines for higher wages

Feb 13, 2024

Pilots at major carriers have won large raises, partly due to a shortage of aviators in the post-pandemic travel boom.

Flight attendants make an average of about $67,000 a year, according to the Labor Department, though pay can range from around $38,000 at the bottom 10th percentile to about $97,000 at the top.

Inflation has been “the most difficult for our new hires,” said Julie Hedrick, national president of the Association of Professional Flight Attendants, which represents about 27,000 flight attendants at American. “We want [American] to come to the table and recognize what we’ve done to return this airline to profitability.”

Flight attendants for the most part are paid when the aircraft door is closed. Unions are largely pushing for either ground pay or boarding pay to compensate flight attendants for their work before takeoff.
