And four months later...
As for the flight attendants, they have not even received a proposal, said Bobbie Pilkington, secretary-treasurer of their union. Her statement directly contradicts Mr. Creighton's speech, in which he said, "We've made proposals to the I.A.M. and to all other groups of represented employees."
"Nobody has given us anything at this point," Ms. Pilkington said. "Most people view employee concessions as just paying for bad management," she said.
But Ms. Pilkington said that her union would continue to deal with Mr. Creighton if asked to do so, even if he is scheduled to leave his post.
A spokesman for United, Joe Hopkins, said the airline would not comment on negotiations.
