Status This Week
No major publicly posted bargaining stage-change was located during the 2026.04.25–2026.05.01 reporting window.
Process Signals
- Frontier remains appropriately grouped with the mediated CWA-AFA carriers.
- Frontier’s 2025 10-K says CWA-AFA filed for mediation through the National Mediation Board in October 2024 and that the parties have been meeting monthly since February 2025.
- For the week ending 2026.05.01, the best read is continued active bargaining inside mediation without a same-week tentative agreement, release, or other visible procedural shift.
CrewSignal Assessment
Frontier remains a live mediation file. The week ending 2026.05.01 is best read as continuity in an already-active mediation posture rather than a fresh public breakthrough.
