CWA-AFA · Carrier Financials
Air Transport International
Tracing money from parent CWA to the CWA-AFA sector to the visible ATI MEC and local layers.
Quick Read
- Visible structure: ATI is a useful comparison carrier because the public record shows both visible CWA-AFA sector funding to the ATI MEC and visible CWA-AFA sector funding to ATI LEC 22002.
- Most recent verified standalone filing signal: ATI LEC 22002 LM-4 (FY ending 05/31/2021) reports 33 members, $2,938 receipts, $2,938 disbursements, and $2,125 payments to officers and employees.
- Visible direct local share: 84.1% in FY2025, 91.1% in FY2024, and 100% of the ATI-specific sector lines visibly identified so far in FY2023.
- Bottom line: ATI provides a clearer visible local-dollar throughline than Avelo because the public filing trail shows visible CWA-AFA sector funding to both the ATI MEC and ATI LEC 22002.
Filing Map
ATI has to be read in layers. Parent CWA is the upstream dues layer. The CWA-AFA sector LM-2 is the clearest public source for visible ATI affiliate funding. At the local layer, the public record shows a verified ATI LEC filing, although the most recent standalone local filing located here is historical rather than current.
- Parent CWA filings: FY ending 05/31/2025; FY ending 05/31/2024; FY ending 05/31/2023.
- CWA-AFA sector filings: FY ending 05/31/2025; FY ending 05/31/2024; FY ending 05/31/2023.
Standalone MEC and LEC Filing Lookback
- ATI MEC: FY ending 05/31/2025: no verified standalone DOL filing link is posted here yet; FY ending 05/31/2024: no verified standalone DOL filing link is posted here yet; FY ending 05/31/2023: no verified standalone DOL filing link is posted here yet.
- ATI LEC: LEC 22002 LM-4 (FY ending 05/31/2021) is the most recent verified standalone local filing posted here.
- What the verified local filing shows: LEC 22002 is listed as a Local Executive Council under Flight Attendants ASN, CWA, with unit name Air Transport Intl. It reports 33 members, $2,938 receipts, $2,938 disbursements, and $2,125 payments to officers and employees for FY ending 05/31/2021.
Visible CWA-AFA Sector Funding
- FY2025: AFA MEC Air Transport Intl $16,342; AFA LEC 22002 Air Transport Intl $86,348.
- FY2024: AFA MEC Air Transport Intl $9,741; AFA LEC 22002 Air Transport Intl $99,119.
- FY2023: AFA LEC 22002 Air Transport Intl $112,515. No separately itemized ATI MEC line has been independently confirmed here yet.
These are visible CWA-AFA sector allocations to ATI-identified affiliates. They are not, by themselves, a complete measure of all bargaining, legal, administrative, or parent-supported service delivered to the property.
What the Visible Direct Local Share Means
This metric measures the percentage of visible ATI-specific CWA-AFA sector funding that went directly to ATI LEC 22002 rather than to the ATI MEC.
Formula: direct named ATI LEC funding ÷ total visible ATI-specific CWA-AFA sector funding.
- FY2025: 86,348 ÷ (86,348 + 16,342) = 84.1%.
- FY2024: 99,119 ÷ (99,119 + 9,741) = 91.1%.
- FY2023: 112,515 ÷ 112,515 = 100% of the ATI-specific sector lines visibly identified so far, because no separately itemized ATI MEC line has been independently confirmed here yet.
Treat this as a floor, not a complete service measure. It captures only direct ATI-specific CWA-AFA sector funding lines that are publicly visible on the sector LM-2.
Negotiations and Representation Visibility
ATI’s current public bargaining picture is easy to verify. ATI flight attendants ratified a new agreement in September 2025, and the current ATI CWA-AFA page lists Kristen Hillman as MEC President, Tatum Pulley as MEC Vice President, and Yvette Johnson as MEC Secretary-Treasurer.
That means ATI has a visible local-representation structure and a visible contract result, while the financial record remains clearest at the sector allocation layer.

Interpretive Caution
ATI is a stronger dues-to-local-service throughline than Avelo on the public record because the sector LM-2 visibly funds both the ATI MEC and ATI LEC 22002. But until newer standalone ATI local or ATI MEC filings are independently verified, the public record is still clearest at the sector layer rather than at the downstream ATI-only accounting layer.
