» NMB STS Determination

August 17, 2010 -The National Mediation Board (NMB) issued its determination that Delta Air Lines is a Single Transportation System (STS) for the purposes of a representational election, as requested in AFA's July 1 petition. This decision initiates the election process, starting with a 14-day window, during which AFA will submit our showing of interest to be placed on the representational ballot. Other parties seeking to represent DAL Flight Attendants must submit the necessary 35% showing of interest (signed NMB cards) by August 31, 2010, as well. The NMB has not yet determined the actual election timeline, which is expected to follow shortly thereafter. Read the NMB's Single Transportation System decision HERE.
