Summary

Flight attendants at Horizon Air just voted overwhelmingly to authorize a strike, sending a clear message to management they’re ready to fight for a fair contract after years of service. With pay as low as $20K for first-year staff and no compensation for critical pre-flight duties, they’re demanding livable wages, better benefits, and improved work rules. Stalled negotiations and “outrageously low” offers have fueled their resolve. While a strike won’t shut down the entire system, targeted disruptions could hit key routes — especially those vital for medical and essential services — forcing management to the table.
