The International Brotherhood of Teamsters/Communications Workers of America Association has reached a tentative first agreement with American Airlines covering 15,000 passenger service agents. The Association is the joint bargaining group (IBT and CWA) that represents agents at American Airlines.
Details of the tentative agreement are being provided to members and a ratification vote will be scheduled. More information will be made available shortly.
In September 2014, by an 86 percent vote, airport and reservations agents at American—formed by the merger of American Airlines and US Airways—overwhelmingly chose representation by the Teamsters/CWA.
"Today's tentative agreement provides significant pay raises to our team members, while preserving jobs and facilitating growth," said Kerry Philipovitch, senior vice president – Customer Experience. "Our agents and representatives have played a critical role in our integration and we thank them for the superior service they provide to our customers every day. We would also like to thank the CWA-IBT for their professionalism and for advocating for their members, and to both negotiating teams for their dedication and hard work toward reaching an agreement."
