\nFlight attendants reject union <\/strong>\n<\/div>\n

  <\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nDelta Air Lines' flight attendants rejected a push made by the union in the first leg of a huge labor organizing drive at the world’s second largest airline by traffic.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nThe Association of Flight Attendants said it plans to file an interference claim against Delta’s management for threatening union supporters, a charge Delta has rejected.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nA total of 9,544 votes were made against joining the AFA union while 8,778 were made in favor. Voting ended on Wednesday after a five-week campaign of often intense rhetoric on both sides.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nSeparate elections covering 14,000 ramp workers and 16,500 gate and reservation agents end November 18th and December 7th respectively.\n<\/p>\n

\n \n<\/p>\n

\nThe separate groups are voting on whether to join the International Association of Machinists and Aerospace Workers or IAM.\n<\/p>\n
