Here is what is pertinent and will be what the grievance is about. The contract required that the company award us 48.5% of the EASK. We are actually going to end up around 47% the shortfall will be 1.5%. There are several varibles on how many flights that might be since its a EASK. Length of the flight and size of the aircraft make big changes. To make you happy I will call the shortfall 1.5%. Do you dispute that number?
We've been through this too many times to rehash and I'm sure nobody wants to see us go through this process again only to see you go silent, then resurface with this same 2 flight per day nonsense. If anyone is interested, they can revisit mine, FTB's, Georgtg's and others posted charts and tables. Minimize the job losses to Delta pilots all you wish sailingfun, it doesn't make it true. It never will.
