Reversal of impending non-revenue boarding process of first come first serve web check-in

Reverse the proposed boarding process based on web check-in. Reinstitute boarding procedure based on seniority and active employees.

Why is this important?

It has been over a year since I launched this petition. FC/FS has been in place since September 2014. Management has ignored all of our requests to not change boarding priorities. Many of us can share personal experiences/examples of the unfairness of boarding this way. Our union leaders and upper management and their families fly space positive, therefore are not impacted by this policy. OUR CALL TO ACTION: Make an effort to connect with and educate the LAA employees. We need to multiply the signatures on this petition proving that the majority of American Airline employees do not support the FC/FS method of boarding. It is only a matter of time when current LAA crew bases will close, forcing non-commuters to experience what has already occurred at LUS. We cannot forget what happened to PIT, LGA, BOS and all of the other former LUS bases. Our success lies in the collective voices of all labor groups. Talk to your fellow employees. Let's change the course of this merger! Thank you, Mary Kepple LUS Flight Attendant

We are almost at 400 signatures. I was told that 2000 of us have sent letters to express their concern over this change in policy. Let's all get the word spread and double that as a signed petition of collective voices to present to management. What truly incense me regarding the change to boarding is when an AA agent said "you may think you were the first to web check-in and when you arrive at the airport you are the 17th on the standby list." Kind of interesting that this is scheduled to go into effect July1-the busiest travel period of the year!
