IF ALPA worked differently, and IF they could get all members from all pilot groups to work together to raise the bar at the same time, there would be some advantage. As of now, it’s just a big bloated organization that makes millions off of the backs of its members while providing negligible benefit.
Every organization has its flaws. The world isn’t perfect. I prefer to go by results. Over the last 20 years ALPA has consistently delivered superior results. We can hang our hats on ideology and always trail Delta and United saying at least we don’t belong to corrupt ALPA. Or we can make a business decision.
