Addressing Safety Concerns on ICE Flights with the Management

The MEC has received concerning reports that put into question whether FAA safety rules are being followed on Avelo ICE deportation flights. Here is a message from our International President Sara Nelson to our CEO about these concerns and demanding that Avelo investigate the issue and ensure the safety of passengers and flight crew. Management acknowledged receipt of the letter and stated they would respond, however, we do not yet have a response. We know you are anxious to have answers and we will continue to press for them.
