This is great news! Easy fix. Now all DALPA has to do is invoke some of its "constructive engagement" with the company to alter the wording such that ALV +15 applies only for reserves called out for Pacific 12-14 day trips. Nothing could be simpler.
Gosh, and we thought domestic reserves we were going to get hosed. Silly us.
