Lynx Aviation Flight Attendants Join the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA

WASHINGTON, Jan. 12 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- A majority of Lynx Aviation
flight attendants voted today to have the Association of Flight Attendants-CWA
(AFA-CWA) serve as their bargaining representative. The vote, counted by the
National Mediation Board (NMB), showed 55 of the 87 eligible Lynx flight
attendants electing AFA-CWA. Due to the high participation rate, the vote
exceeded the NMB's archaic rule that over half of the work group must
participate in order for the election to be valid.

"We are excited to welcome our Lynx sisters and brothers to the AFA-CWA
family," said Patricia Friend, AFA-CWA International President. "Today, Lynx
flight attendants stood together and made their voices heard despite outdated
NMB rules and management's anti-union tactics. We applaud their determination
to shape the future of their careers by joining AFA-CWA."

AFA-CWA filed a petition for election with the NMB after a strong majority of
Lynx's flight attendants signed representational cards earlier this year.
Lynx Aviation is a regional carrier for Frontier Airlines and often has the
moniker of Frontier Express.

Last week, AFA-CWA was also elected the bargaining representative for the over
150 flight attendants at Ryan International.

For over 60 years, the Association of Flight Attendants has been serving as
the voice for flight attendants in the workplace, in the aviation industry, in
the media and on Capitol Hill. More than 55,000 flight attendants at 20
airlines come together to form AFA-CWA, the world's largest flight attendant
union. AFA is part of the 700,000-member strong Communications Workers of
America (CWA), AFL-CIO. Visit us at www.afanet.org.
