Why negotiate LCA trips without first letting the membership know they were being talked about? I can't think of one reason.
I understand about not negotiating in public. That's fine.
But just like the CDO/split duty thing -- this change to bidding with check airmen would be a pretty major change to our contract. There's no good reason to keep it secret. All they would have to do is put out a short memo saying that it is under consideration. No commitment one way or the other.
That wouldn't compromise the negotiations.
