Horizon / CWA-AFA

Status Summary

CrewSignal did not identify a notable non-union/public third-party report, company statement, or National Mediation Board filing during the week ending 2026.03.20 that materially changed Horizon’s visible bargaining posture.

The only public procedural detail CrewSignal located for the week was a March 20 CWA-AFA update stating that the parties met again for contract mediation in Chicago from March 16 through March 18. Because no same-week company, NMB, or independent public source documented a substantive milestone, Horizon remains best read as an active mediation case rather than a breakthrough week.

• Non-union/public visibility: No notable non-union/public bargaining reference was identified for the week.
• Procedural signal: The only public procedural detail located was a union-side report of a March 16 through March 18 mediation block in Chicago.
• What matters next: The next meaningful shift still needs independent or formal confirmation.

CrewSignal Watch Points

This was not a no-contact week; it was a low-visibility week. The reported Chicago session matters because it confirms the file was still moving inside mediation during the report window.

CrewSignal should not over-read that procedural signal. Without same-week company, NMB, or independent public reporting of a tentative agreement or comparable milestone, the correct read remains unresolved bargaining under mediation.

• Mediation track: Active, with a same-week session publicly reported.
• Contract track: No independently reported breakthrough changed the visible status.
• System-wide: Watch for a broader public signal rather than assuming movement from a single procedural update.
