MINNEAPOLIS (AP)-- Flight attendants at Delta Air Lines will begin voting later this month on whether to join a union.

The vote will be the first under new rules that are widely seen as making it easier for transportation unions to win.

The Association of Flight Attendants says the voting will run from Sept. 29 through Nov. 3. The date was set on Friday by the National Mediation Board, which oversees union elections at airlines.

About two-thirds of Delta flight attendants are currently nonunion. But their co-workers who came from the old Northwest Airlines are in the Association of Flight Attendants. The vote will determine whether the entire group is in a union, or out.

Delta Air Lines Inc., based in Atlanta, wants workers to vote against unionizing.
