The MEC CAN file class grievances for lack or notification for cancellations. Or how about accountability when pilots are getting rescheduled at hubs because schedulers are choosing to circumvent the assignment methodology outlined in the CBA. FAs are all being offered 200% for trips pickups. Is that something that was asked from management from pilots? Mentioned? Has the 200% to “fly your trip” been discussed since that seemed to save a larger meltdown in January? Management isn’t saying a word about what’s going on, I would at least like to know if the MEC is at least trying to find out
And if management is telling them nothing, that in itself is something that needs to be communicated to the pilots.
You really think this is simply management doing their job and the MEC just hanging back to enforce the CBA? My man, the contract is getting violated every few minutes.
Now you get why I think this place ( mgmt ) is a trash fire. I mean wtf. How many Delta or united flights have I been dh'd on. Or the call from crew scheduling asking where I am??? I'm just waiting for a crew member to get fecked in an airport out of some pax rage. J Miller will probably blame atc for it
