Some of you guys need to read a little more in the actual ALPA merger procedures and policy.
Since there are relatively senior, voluntary LUAL furloughees, "stapleing" all 1435/37 to the bottom of a combined seniority list is unfeasible since the relative seniority of each carrier's respective list must be maintained. "Stapleing" a relatively senior, voluntary furloughee to the bottom of a combined list likely would violate that requirement.
However, there is no requirement that they all be considered the same. That will be argued. They just can't be reordered.
