If that’s considered a “Win” for UAL ALPA it’s the most pathetic W in the history of airline bargaining. They shouldn’t have wasted a dime of barging on FSB.
I'm pretty sure there are plenty of other reserve "wins" in UAL's AIP vs. ours. Again, reserve goes more senior at UAL and ALPA CARES ABOUT IT.
Here's a short summary:
Increased Reserve days off to 13 in a 30-day bid period, and 14 days off in a 31-day bid period; for months of Jan, Feb, Mar, Apr, May, Sep, Oct, and Nov.

•Release on last day prior to HDO moved up to 0600

NEW - Premium Short Call

There's 7 pages of reserve provisions... how much thought did APA put into our reserves?
