Tentative Agreement Balloting Opens Today

Balloting for the Tentative Agreement will open at 10 a.m. Eastern time today. The voting period will end at 10 a.m., Eastern time on Saturday, December 15, 2012.

The referendum process will be carried out in accordance with telephone/Internet balloting procedures that are set forth in Section 90 of the ALPA Administrative Manual.

You can access the ALPA balloting system by logging on to the ALPA website at Air Line Pilots Association, International with your ALPA number and Intranet password. Select the “VOTE” graphic on the member home page and you will be automatically passed through to the ALPA balloting system - already logged on and ready to vote. For security purposes, you will receive an email from [email protected] at the email address on file with ALPA confirming your vote was recorded by eBallot.

To establish new or replace lost phone voting credentials, you will need to contact ALPA’s balloting staff at (888) 359-2572 during business hours to obtain a 10-digit activation code which will be used to establish your voting PIN. (Please note that the PIN for phone voting is not the same as your Intranet password unless you establish the PIN through the activation code process.)

The results will be announced by email and posted on the respective MEC websites and at the joint www.unitedpilotagreement.com website as soon as possible following the certification of this ballot.

Should you need additional balloting assistance, you may contact Membership and Council Services Monday - Friday between 9:00 a.m. ET – 5:00 p.m. ET at 888-FLY-ALPA and press “3.” After hours, you may leave a message and your call will be returned the next business day.
