The merger representatives shall carefully weigh all the equities inherent in their merger situation. In joint session, the merger representatives should attempt to match equities to various methods of integration until a fair and equitable integrated seniority list is reached. Factors to be considered in constructing a fair and equitable integrated seniority list, in no particular order and with no particular weight, shall include but not be limited to the following:
(1) Career expectations.
(2) Longevity.
(3) Status and category.
I've read it.
I'm counting on the 3 listed parts of the merger policy to carry the most weight.
You're counting on something that is not mentioned, but in your mind makes perfect sense.
When lawyers get involved with the arbitrators, I would expect what is actually written down to carry the most weight.
Hopefully they'll bring up the CAL pilot who was involved with the USAir merger. He was pushing for DOH. We'll see if he had suddenly changed his mind now that HIS company is involved in a merger!
We'll see who's right in the end. A lot may be determined by "back room" deals involving certain pilots selling out others...
