Moveup as a PMer has really padded my paychecks 😁. I really hope the re-write is better and not just different. My hopes are high, but there are some red flags. I will trust the NC and allow the MEC to speak for me, but I will verify when I see it. I have never yoted "yes" on anything in my 20+ year airline career except to strike (twice). Hopefully they will knock it out of the park so I can break that record. We'll see.

It wasn't that long ago SWAPA was warning us about interactions with FAs on the vans and in hotels... so how bout we fix that! Why should FAs influence our van times, hotel locations, etc. Why no SWAPA Hotel Committee.... Even my regional back in the day had a union hotel committee. That's been industry standard for decades. There is a fundamental change that could really improve our QOL here. I've grown weary of the expected entourage that has to move as a group and wait for everyone to assemble.

Also, are we seriously considering having to cover multiple airports from one base... seriously??? That screams "concession" to me.
