ExpressJet flight attendants vote for IAM representation

More than 2,100 ExpressJet and Atlantic Southeast Airlines (ASA) flight attendants have voted to join the International Assn. of Machinists and Aerospace Workers. The election was prompted by the merger of the two airlines after Utah-based SkyWest Inc. last year acquired Houston-based ExpressJet and announced it would merge with SkyWest's Atlanta-based subsidiary ASA (ATW Daily News, Oct. 17).
