1-truth that AE never had a fleet plan.(this alpa knows already)
If this is true then the company and the union both negotiated in bad faith as they both stated that there was a plan but could not disclose it as they negotiated it. For months they have been saying that the fleet plan is not affected by a merger and that our hiring and management decisions at AE are taking into account a possible merger.
Please, don't be so naive. They lied to us and will do so again. They will tell you what you want to hear in distressful times.
They don't care.
