This Committee is responsible for establishing and maintaining an effective information sharing process between QXAFA leadership and members, including use of the afahorizon.org website, email “blasts”, and social media outlets.

The Association of Flight Attendants Employee Assistance Program (AFA EAP) is a confidential resource available to the members, their families and their partners to assist with personal, and work-related concerns.

The Inflight Service Committee works with management on changes in service, procedures to be followed, and other matters pertaining to inflight service, catering and galley & service cart configuration.

The Grievance Committee represents Flight Attendants in discipline and contract disputes. Flight Attendants are encouraged to contact a Grievance Representative if they encounter a work related issue that they are not able to resolve with an Inflight Supervisor or with questions related to the Collective Bargaining Agreement.

The AFA Government Affairs Committee lobbies member of Congress, provides lobbying training to AFA members and organized grassroots member activism around issues that matter most to Flight Attendants.

The Negotiations Committee directly fights for the rights of all Horizon Flight Attendants by negotiating our contract (CBA), Side-letters, and Memorandums of Understanding.

The Reserve Committee works to ensure contractual procedures are followed by monitoring all issues specific to Flight Attendants on reserve status. The committee assists with Contract interpretation and facilitates interaction between reserve crew members and Crew Scheduling while also educating members on the reserve system. For more information and resources.

The Scheduling Committee meets each quarter to provide input to management concerning trips and schedules.  Although individual trips are now being produced by the IBT (pilot’s union), it is the responsibility of the Scheduling Committee to establish the bid line.  In determining bid lines, the Scheduling Committee attempts to keep lines consistent especially regarding days off, morning and afternoon trips, 2, 3, or 4 days trips, and many other factors.  However,  they must take into account Trip credit values, scheduling and marketing changes,  aircraft maintenance schedules, and holiday reductions when building lines.

The Uniform Committee has established a relationship with management to assist in the development of a professional yet comfortable uniform.   It is the committee’s goal to provide feedback from the membership to management while educating our members in maintaining a professional uniform look.  The committee is more than happy to clarify or suggest possible optional pieces to management as well.
