And it wasnt a memrat approved concession. It would have been a close vote imho. It was also extended when mgmt needed it to be.
mgmt is free to drop any package on the table they want. If its a crappy deal nobody takes it. If its a windfall its gona be hilarious to watch a mec fight to take that dream offer away from 60+ yr old line pilots
Its no stretch for me to imagine a unilateral offer plan that is targeted at prexisting morbidity covid vulnerable pilots
The company can always do what it wants, the question is what happens after the fact. In the case of retired pilots, it looks like the parties got together to formalize an agreement. I’m sure that if the pilots rehired were put back into their old place on the seniority list a grievance absolutely would have happened (and it would have been easily won by ALPA).
In your world where the company can pay outside of the pwa do you think they could raise pay rates as long as it was equal? Lower them? What exactly is the line that they can’t cross if any?
