Unlike DALALPA and their PWA, there is also that section of the UPA which says UAL ALPA has to agree to it. As far as I'm aware, going all the way back to 2014-2015 time frame, we have not based on information from the Crew Rest Oversight Committee (CROC). I certainly hope we wouldn't be advocating waiving a section of our UPA...without something big in return for the pilots.
