Ms. Kay Panos
Manager Onboard Services 
United Airlines Onboard Services - LAXSW
PO Box 92245
Los Angeles, CA 90009

Dear Kay:

As the company streamlines its operations and moves through reorganization efforts, I believe Flight Attendant quality of life issues should be just as important to our company.

"As a large commuter domicile, such an agreement would benefit the bottom line of our company. It would simply allow more options for Flight Attendants to travel both to and from work."

Other major carriers, to which United Airlines has consistently compared itself, have entered into Reciprocal Cabin Seat Agreements. There is no reason that our company should not achieve these same agreements for its employees.

As a large commuter domicile, such an agreement would benefit the bottom line of our company. It would simply allow more options for Flight Attendants to travel both to and from work.

I encourage you to take the time to advocate on behalf of each Flight Attendant based here in Los Angeles. This option is not only viable; it makes great business sense for us to pursue agreements that will benefit so many employees.

An agreement of this magnitude will have a positive impact on Flight Attendants, and I look forward to your support on this matter.

Sincerely,

Darren Shiroma, LEC President
AFA-CWA Council 12 – LAX
