Revcovery with protections is very different from witholding trips entirely. Any change is selling jobs. Jobs that we already bought by selling jobs to agree to the new hire freeze in the first place. Now we are going to possibly sell back the jobs we bought by selling jobs and end up with less jobs than when we started. Dumb move IMO.
If OE buyoffs are really such an important issue for the company (and us because the benefit is disproportional etc) they should have ZERO PROBLEM with enacting a recovery with numerous protections as well as additional offset staffing positive (for us) improvements elsewhere to make up for it.
Same report or later.
Same release or earlier.
Greater day by day credit.
Original trip redeye/WOCL protections honored.
Only one pairing for one pairing (no stacking/ second bite at the apple) with hotels in domicile if needed.
If original trip started or ended with a DH, the new trip must fit inside the first and last revenue leg report/release times.
And we get manning positives for everyone to offset the job losses.
We already sold jobs to get what we have. Witholding OE trips from the bid is a devistating concession that guts every FO categoty and hammers staffing.
