Asian American and Pacific Islander Support

Dear Flight Attendants,

Hate against the Asian American and Pacific Islander (AAPI) communities has risen during the COVID-19 pandemic, partially stemming from rhetoric surrounding the origination of the coronavirus. Earlier this week eight people, six of whom were Asian women, were killed in the Atlanta shootings at three spas. This incident has shaken many in the AAPI community, including Flight Attendants.

We would like to remind everyone in our Flight Attendant family to continue to remain vigilant when on layovers. If you go out to exercise or pick up food don’t go out alone or order food delivery. And always let someone know where you are going. The AFA stands united against racism. #StopAAPIHate

Stronger Together, Better Together, 

Joni, Scott, Chasity, Jaci-Ann, Josh 

and the Entire AFA Leadership
