I find it oddly coincidental that Carl is so adamant about "scope" when he is at the top of the profession. Could it be that a large number of forum users on here are junior? What is Carl's daily interaction with "junior" guys? It certainly is not from going across the pond in his whale.
Negotiations are all about priorities and compromise. NO TWO people can have the same...........
The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
Every situation CAN be worse, but what has ALPA/DALPA done to protect our scope lately?
747 freighters outsourced to JV/codeshare partners.
Alaska growing, adding routes, using our gates, flying DAL hub to DAL hub.
Line in the sand, 76 seats mainline-"feel" jets outsourced. RAH flies narrowbodies. Slot swap 92% RJ.
Things can be worse - yes. BUT, there is no fight in DALPA / ALPA for our jobs and our scope. Is it possible that DPA cannot do worse?
OUR JOBS! Scope affects everyone on the seniority list.
