ATLANTA — Dozens of flight attendants rallied Monday in downtown Atlanta for better pay and benefits, particularly from Atlanta-based Delta Air Lines.

Delta Airlines said in a statement to Channel 2 Action News: “We believe our direct relationship with employees has proven to be stronger, faster, and more effective in driving improvements, which is why Delta employees have repeatedly rejected union representation from AFA and other groups over the past 20 years.
