Mainline couldn't care less about a flowthru. Under jforj, there was supposed to be a flowthru but as of now there hasn't been one. there was preferential hiring, but not a flowthru like there was supposed to be. Only a flow back, which IS what they care about. From my understanding, jforj is over and done with unless there is growth here at PSA. I dont really see how our ALPA has any motivation to negotiate a flowthru now the mainline is USAPA. Why help guys to flow to a non-apla carrrier? Thats less money for ALPA national. And yes, our management couldn't wait to get rid of jforj. I think there were several of them here that caused headaches.
