C'mon Andy, that was a little preachy, don't ya think? We're on the same side here.
As everyone being furloughed does, I do read ALPA correspondence, but the insurance issue has never been addressed. Also, they may have asked us to report flight benefit problems, but the clear answer has NOT been provided from the company. Are we going to be regular S3 though 11/30 as the contract states, or are we going to be S3B from 11/5 on, as I've heard happened to 10/5 guys.
I can, however, quote ALPA ad nauseum regarding ASAP and min line value. Yes, those are important issues. Right now different issues are important to different parts of the pilot groiup. Furloughess just happen to have lower priority issues. Even ALPA National has not mentioned Comair furloughs in any of its messages.
I cannot find the ALPA email that details where I should send my health insurance premium to ensure that it is properly credited. I need to make sure that my wife and children don't lose health benefits. Maybe you can forward the email that addresses how to cover insurance premiums between furlough and 12/31.
I know the company doesn't give a crap. That is crystal clear. What about ALPA?
