Don't kid yourself. If that arbitration would've gone the other way, you'd be no more concern to AAG than a Mesa or RAH pilot.
Nothing against them, but AAG doesn't care anything about them other than they keep moving the metal.
Its a little too early in the day to be slobbering drunk.
I might have missed it, but who said anything about anyone doing anything out of the goodness of their hearts? Is that what you want? For AA or any company to do something for you because they think you are nice?
This flow and subsequent streamlined career progression benefits each one of us individually and that is all that matters. Yes, the 824 was awarded through arbitration. That is EXACTLY why it is important to have a contract with things in writing. Any violation comes with gains for us through arbitration. With that said, AA has been flowing up more Envoy pilots than the contractual minimum. Call it what you will...an olive branch and/or a business move. Either way, we all benefit.
Take a step back and breath for a second. You have been one of the loudest negative nancies on here and talk airline for 2 years. Now that there is not much negativity anymore you are grasping at straws.
