Skyteam unions rally in the US

Civil aviation unions took to the streets of the city of Atlanta, US, in an effort to give a major airline’s workers a voice.

Trade unionists and ITF representatives converged in Atlanta on Monday, 1 October, for a meeting of labour organisations representing workers employed by airlines in the Skyteam alliance.

A rally was held to help boost the organising campaigns of the Association of Flight Attendants and the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers; they are targeting Delta Airlines staff where only pilots are currently unionised.

Delta Airlines is a member of the Skyteam alliance.
