The FAA recently proposed a rule relaxing its requirements around what items are mandatory in an onboard emergency medical kit (EMK). The rule is not yet final. Here’s why our union opposes this proposed rule.

AFA Opposes Proposed FAA Emergency Medical Kit Rule, Pushes Congressional Mandate

The Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) recently proposed relaxing its rules around what items are required in an onboard emergency medical kit (EMK). The FAA’s proposed rule walks back specific item requirements and gives airlines much more discretion in deciding what an EMK should contain.

This is contrary to the direction given by Congress in Sec. 367 and 368 of the FAA Reauthorization Act of 2024, which calls for experts to “mandate” EMK content.

The proposed rulemaking ignores expert recommendations that the FAA itself requested. In October 2024, the FAA convened a working group of medical experts and aviation industry stakeholders (including AFA) to review EMK requirements. The FAA did not follow all of the working group's recommendations.

Our comments to the FAA read in part:

While AFA understands the FAA’s desire to increase operator flexibility in managing the contents of first aid and emergency medical kits, our experience is that this approach undermines safety, creates confusion for medical response teams, and disadvantages carriers who would now carry the burden of determining necessary tools.

The rulemaking is not yet final. In addition to expressing concerns through our comments, we also used this as an opportunity to double down on the working group’s recommendations.

We will continue to press the FAA for the tools we need to do our jobs as aviation’s first responders.

ICE came to town and left behind weakened economies

Research links ICE enforcement surges to lasting declines in local spending, foot traffic and jobs. In Minneapolis, businesses are still recovering.

September 11th, 25 Years Later: A Message from Your AFA EAP

As we pause to remember this solemn remembrance, we are also reminded of the remarkable resilience of the Flight Attendant community.

In the years since 9/11, Flight Attendants have faced additional tragedies, public health crises, workplace violence, economic uncertainty, and countless critical incidents.

Through each challenge, Flight Attendants have continued to demonstrate an unwavering commitment to safety, professionalism and compassion.

AFA EAP encourages every Flight Attendant to care for themselves as intentionally as they care for their passengers and flying partners.

If this remembrance brings up difficult emotions, reach out to someone you trust. Talk with a fellow Flight Attendant, a family member, or an AFA EAP rep. Connection remains one of the most powerful tools for healing.

Remember, your AFA EAP is here to listen, provide confidential support, and connect you with additional resources whenever needed.

AFA EAP is available 2/47.

Call 800-424-2406.
