Stapled? slow down...Dont throw your hands in the air just yet.....
At the first joint MEC meeting the EWR reps at the direction of J.P. threaten to delay the JCBA if the S-UAL MEC did not go along with pay banding....Lets think about that scenario for a second....A Delayed JCBA means no SLI.....
If (BIG if), lets say due to this threaten delay the senior furloughs ('99 & '00 hires) return to S-UAL and are now ACTIVE pilots,then what...
I know that there have not been any RECALLS to S-UAL yet, but the rumors are starting about a September recalls. DENTK bringing back PIs and the B747 fleet count now back up to 26 up from 23. Larger retirements numbers on the S-UAL side...More frequent vacancies being announced for captains, unfilled A320 FO positions becoming the norm with every bid.
I know this is nothing to write home about but the trend is in the right direction for a change. Fear only becomes leverage if you let it.
