Any "Latest & Greatest" about Delta?
I think Guadeloupe Holdings honored AirTran's previously in house NPA negotiated scope/merger/fragmentation language completely. At the end of the day, the AT pilots agreed too. They may not have liked the merger results, but they liked their weak contractual language even less, and looking back on it probably for good reason.
But can a CBA waive your individual federal rights? If so, to what extent? Is there a limit? If a CBA established a mandatory company religion that was ratified by the majority, would that become compulsory for every employee? What if a CBA prohibited non traditional relationships? Could an employee expect to face dicipline for non compliance? And we're not talking about churches and little non profits. We're talking about huge for profit public companies.
I don't know the answer to this, but HIPAA is otherwise considered to be extremely strong federal law that protects an individual's medical privacy. Perhaps there is a CBA carve out in the law, but I've never seen or heard of that. Can a union legally waive that on your behalf? Can a company dicipline an employee for not agreeing to it? I really don't think anyone knows, although it appears the answer is no just upon first glance. It will probably take a press to test case to answer this, unless ALPA/APA or someone can successfully pursue a declatory judgement, which isn't always possible unless harm can be shown to have been done already to someone.
But clearly a CBA doesn't simply trump all federal law and individual protections and rights.

Hi guys,
As I understand it, there is no recovery obligation if I am removed for an entire trip that was bought for OE. Is this correct?
Thanks in advance! Swapped into a trip with s LCA and it just got tagged for OE. I usually don't play the system, but this seemed like it could be a good deal.
Thanks

Until they release you, the system supposedly won't let you pick anything up, but you can, of course, put in a GS.

Straight to the Supreme Court. Is that anything like voting no before a TA is even reached?

I also am trying out a cable connection. While the cable company sucks, the internet is over 10 times faster than uverse, is stable, and once everything was set up it just works.
Uverse is cheaper. Cable is better for where I'm at.
