Any juicy details on Alaska Pilot's new TA?...It has been weeks and no leaks.

Homa

We'll find out on Tuesday at the latest.

Of course, execs are hinting at more possible layoffs/furloughs this coming Fall.
So, a TA may be a moot point for the 60 already furloughed and the bottom 50-100 or
so still on the property.

Rumor is, it's a POS TA. It will probably be endorsed by our MEC with the reasoning that it's the best we could do at this time. If it passes it will be 4-6 years before we negotiate our next contract. Will withold final judgement until I review the TA in it's entirety, hopefully by the end of next week.

Weeks? At this rate it will be 2 months. All the rumors sure are trying to persuade a positive vote. ALPA is one secretive political machine. I bet Unit 1 won't strike with trying to get Airtran on the books.

Why on earth would any MEC propose a 4-6 year agreement right now?

Bond

Maybe I didn't understand your point correctly, but are you hinting at a possible Alaska-Citrus merger?

He's referring to Airtran voting in ALPA as their representation.

Gotcha! For a second there I thought this was the new rumor.
