So they brought us 4833, ALV+15, reduced profit sharing, sick leave verification, 7 short calls--and the negotiating committee went rogue to finish the "deal." We bailed out the company's 50-seat crisis. ALPA also promised 300 early-outs which never materialized, and stated that we'd never see the "3-3" part of the deal. Don't forget, hiring took a year longer than implied.

To top it off, we were assaulted with a slick marketing campaign featuring multi-media doses of Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. Paid for by our dues money.



Meanwhile, the company is ignoring our JV protections, and the Virgin Atlantic negotiations are...who knows where.

Oh, and the survey results were never released.
