Is it worth joining the union?

[nosmo king]

I’ve worked for an airline without union recognition and one with union recognition.

As a result I’d never want to work for an airline without it.

Regardless of which union represents you, not being a member means not having a say or a vote. A situation I would not want to tolerate especially if I intended to stay in the airline for a significant length of time.

As a pilot without union membership you are relying on your airline management to protect you in the event of an incident or accident. As a union member you have someone else to turn too.

I hope this helps.
