Suddenly they’re pulling out all the stops to follow the letter of the contract? Sure wish they’d do THAT across the board!
Among other things, in order for a past practice to be binding it must be acknowledged by both parties. For years there has been an ALPA comm that was vetted and approved by the company that specifically contradicted the "PR rounded up" practice. Winning a past practice case would be nearly impossible.
