Am I Eligible To Cast a Ballot in the TA Vote?

Eligibility to vote will be determined prior to the ballot mailing. The TA Summary booklet and balloting instructions will be provided to all Members eligible to vote, including Members who have the opportunity to become eligible during the voting process.

Active

All active AFA Members in good standing (dues current, active AFA Member) are eligible to vote. Members ineligible due to non-payment of dues will be notified when attempting to vote and directed to the AFA Membership Department to become current in order to vote.

Inactive

Inactive Members (Unpaid Leaves of Absence of more than 3 months, etc.) may choose to “leave and remain active” to continue payment of dues during the leave in order to be eligible to vote. Contact the AFA Ballot Help Line at (844) 232-2228, extension 2, to complete the process to “leave and remain active.”

• Example 1: A Flight Attendant is on an unpaid leave as of 02/01/2025. Their 3 month dues obligation is February, March, and April. This person is eligible to vote without any issues.
• Example 2: A Flight Attendant is on an unpaid leave of absence as of 09/01/2024. Their 3 month dues obligation is September, October, and November. This person is not eligible to vote unless they contact Membership Services and pay their dues through and including April 2025. [AFA C&B Article II C.1.b(3)].

New Flight Attendants

New Flight Attendants who are scheduled to become a dues paying AFA Member before the ballot closes will be able to vote during the entire period the ballot is open.

Good Standing

If a Flight Attendant is delinquent in paying their dues they are not eligible to cast a vote. These Flight Attendants will receive the voting instructions with an activation code, however they will not be able to cast a vote until they settle their account. These individuals must contact AFA Membership Services.
