Airline executives don't need a bailout — but thousands of flight attendants do. Here's why helping lift America's flight industry is the morally correct thing to do.

Sara Nelson is the president of the Association of Flight Attendants, the largest flight attendant union in the United States.that companies run by billionaires and industries, like airlines, shouldn't be propped up and should be left to fail during the coronavirus pandemic.

I'll never forget that call. It was 2003, and our union was six months into a 38-month bankruptcy at United Airlines that followed September 11th. Even with this emergency relief, there's a real possibility people like Mr. Palihapitiya will get their wish, thanks in large part to onerous conditions on the payroll relief imposed by Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin at the last minute.

Bankruptcies will also bring more of what consumers hate. When the industry consolidated after past bankruptcies, airlines raised fees for baggage and ticket changes. They shrank legroom and started charging to pick your seat. If the industry shrinks again, the conditions in the air will only get worse.

Whatever the rationale, anyone cheering for airlines to fail is saying it's OK for more than two million workers to suffer catastrophic loss. That's simply not something we'll let happen on our watch.

Who’s up for a good 6h flight in Economy right now?

Let’s see if the future doesn’t hold new designs for plans? Or new regulations? ...no middle seats, and protective coverage for all attendants. 🤔

Flight attendants and the rest of front line employees.
