I've written this before, how much change can happen in 3 contracts?
LAA 1997 contract. 2003 TA (23.5% pay cut work rules gutted). 2012 BK contract led to the 2013 MTA.
There was no 2000 contract. It was voted down Aug 2001.
There was no 2009 contract. Kick the can.
I've never voted YES for anything. I've only voted NO.
Just a little history.
Completely understand, the past is what it is. Time to get busy not going for 9th in the next contract! I was a probie for the JCBA vote, and I was very conflicted as to how I would have voted. APA's plan for 'let's see what happens in arbitration' wasn't reassuring. History has proven we wouldn't have gained anything with DAL/UAL pay rates. We received the largest pay increases post bankruptcy than any other carrier. LUS E/W gave up some QWL issues, but LAA really had nothing to give. Again, the past is what it is, let's get an industry leader this time!
