The pay will change. It's going to take a minimum of 2 years and a strike or up to the final hour before a strike.
This press release addresses LOA 67, not section 6 negotiations. This grievance over LOA 67 is going straight to expedited arbitration - so it goes straight to an arbitrator who delivers a decision to which the company and the pilot group are legally bound.
Not to confused with the RLA process of establishing a record of negotiating in good faith, begging the NMB for a mediator, negotiating with a mediator present, reaching an impasse under mediation, then A)agreeing to arbitration and accepting that decision OR B) rejecting
arbitration, the 30-day cooling off period, then self-help ("strike").
Completely different, wouldn't you agree?
