Dallas-based Southwest Airlines has reached an agreement in principle with its flight attendants union after almost a year in mediation.
No further details of the tentative flight attendant contract were available at this time, although workers were looking for major raises as part of the deal.
The deal came through in “multiple negotiation sessions throughout the week of May 30,” according to a note sent to flight attendants from the union. Next week, both parties will finalize contract language before the negotiating committee presents a complete tentative agreement to the TWU Local 556 executive board for review. The review will be conducted in a series of meetings throughout the week of June 13.
