The On Call Steward: a 24/7 Resource for our Pilots

Fellow Pilots,

As of April 1, the committee has instituted an on call steward to be available to pilots at all times. Pilots can contact the on call Steward via the main union office phone number (702) 268-7591 (Option #2), with immediately time-sensitive questions or issues. Questions that are not time-sensitive should instead be emailed to stewards@apa2118.org and will be answered promptly.

Stewards are experts in Collective Bargaining Agreement language and interpretation and can act as representation for pilots in everything from disagreements with crew services to potentially disciplinary Section 18 meetings. Stewards also review and shepherd the grievance process and are happy to assist pilots in writing or submitting grievances properly. We strongly encourage pilots to contact the stewards if an assignment seems to be illegal or in violation of the contract. While it’s always good to ask fellow pilots for advice, to get the official union position pilots should contact the stewards.

Q: I have an issue and I’m not sure which committee to contact, where should I start?

A: Contact your union stewards at stewards@apa2118.org or for an immediately time-sensitive issue call (702) 268-7591 (Option #2).

Fraternally,

Your Steward Committee
