More than a dozen protesters picketed at Door 6 at Hopkins International Airport, part of fourteen nationwide protests over United Airlines' treatment of flight attendants
“Respect!,” went the response, chanted by more than a dozen picketers.
“We’re short on schedulers, flight attendant support team,” said Melinda Beal, local spokesperson for the AFA. The group staged 14 similar protests across the country claiming, according to FlightAware, United has experienced nearly 70,000 delays and almost 7,000 cancelations since May. “We’ve experienced some unprecedented delays and cancellations and, quite frankly, the crews aren’t feeling supported,” said Beal, a flight attendant of 35 years. “The passengers have been telling us that they’re getting frustrated. Well, we stand with them. We are also frustrated.”
