Imagine 2018 with punitive measures
2015 if you vote NO RA will take punitive fleet measures...be happy C2012 prevents further punitive measures that the new TA would allow to happen..
2018 under the new TA open season on punitive measures
If you Vote NO in 2018 Management can reduce the size of aircraft to Europe, Management can put RJs on hub to hub routes and longer ranges, Management can pressure all the pilots calling in sick.
Actually they would not even have to wait to 2018, what if they want a LOA in the interim. All the punitive measures in this TA could be applied a soon as it's signed. PS will be 100% gone next contract or be prepared to be punished. How long will those pay rates last when so much can be used against the pilots.
This TA will guarantee that all future contracts will be yes votes; hence, "labor risk is off the table".
The latest letter from RA is proof they will do what they can to get a YES vote.
This letter from RA means more than ever we need to keep C2012.
