Here's one you won't notice unless you read all the way thru the TA because the implementation schedule is at the end (devil details ).

In the CBA 2006, the company was 'allowed' 6+ months for automation/implementation of the increased Rigs and many of the hidden $$ clauses. In that 6 months, they figured out how to effectively neutralize our 'gains'. How many $$ did we lose in that 'implementation' ?

In this TA, there are several areas where the company is allowed up to 18 months for automation/implementation and there are several TBDs. While many areas (notably new disruptions) will be handled manually (Bravo NC!), there are several areas where we will still be severely disadvantaged/delayed-- including several Trip Removal penalties, the new Deviation Bank Allowance, Established fare fix and 130% upgrades. Why couldn't these important QOL items also be handled manually until automated?
