Over the last week over 800 emails have been sent by flight attendants, and even some frequent flyers, protesting yet another inflight marketing scheme that is demeaning and degrading to the flight attendant profession.  Our primary job is to be on board as safety professionals and yet, even after hundreds of email protests, US Airways management still doesn't get it. 

 

My fellow union brothers and sisters, your continued efforts in objecting to these types of onboard marketing schemes is essential and needed. If you have not taken action by sending a letter to the management of US Airways and Cold Stone Creamery, do so now. If you have participated, please forward this action alert to your friends and coworkers. 

 

The word is spreading. Newspapers across the country are picking up the story with articles being written in the Chicago Tribune, Huston Chronicle, St. Louis Dispatch, and the East Valley Tribune.
