During the transition of NK into ULCC indigo saw many faults with the transition process (even though NK was/is extremely profitable). Despite rough early start to the year F9 seems to have much better operation with better leadership. F9 still has long ways to go to perfect there operation though.
But you guys feel free to blame the current lower pay at F9

IAH hotel is nice but the drive is just a waste

Does anyone know when the company and union will meet again and when we might expect more news of contract progress? Just curious if August will yield anymore information on what is being done on our behalf since its been some time with no MEC updates.

Relax, get a life, spend time with your family, enjoy life and what you have. Stop being a tool.

I must have missed that one.
I see there was a July 2nd one. Oops
I hadn't seen one since the "emergency" thing
But still. When will they meet with the company again? Is that a monthly thing or just random?

Just let the NC continue to negotiate. Not time yet to fire them, we don't even have a TA yet lets see what they come up with first.
