"The number one thing that's frustrating our work for us right now is that when we have operational disruptions, let's say for weather or for air traffic control delays, United completely melts down and they have no ability to get up and running," Melinda Beal, Flight Attendant with United Airlines and local council president for Association of Flight Attendants AFA-CWA Local 63 said.
