There are these three legal cases back in May filed against Frontier Airlines on behalf of the female pilots.

Not sure if it helps you- but it may be a good resource to look into.

Subject: Airline employer restrictions on expressing for breastfeeding mother



Dear LACTNETIs there any legal precedent in the US requiring an airline to allow an employee to express milk during long flights?There is a case in the UK currently arguing that "airlines are exempt" They are also looking for "medical" opinion that a mother could go 8 hours without expressing but that going longer would put her at risk of mastitis -- it seems to me to be impossible to provide evidence of exactly how many hours are likely to provoke mastitis?

Thanks for any help.

Helen
