Our contract stipulates that management must give us 6 months to comply with any uniform change. So, for at least 6 months, you are good to wear the orange lanyard.
I had mine on, I saw about 20 out of 40 other pilots in/around the JFK lounge that also had theirs on. Just wear it.
Good info, thanks Timbo.
Got home from a trip last night and found my lanyard in the mail.
Wore my lanyard on my trip today.
Noticed about 20-30 percent wearing them in the ATL lounge today.
Personally, I didn't want to change my lanyard (was happy with current setup) but once DALPA took the shot I decided to back them up and provide cover.
Hope others do the same.
