Thanks Brad Holt!
Also, I just talked to a buddy at SkyWest, and he was denied a 12 month personal LOA recently. I just don't get it... ASA furloughs, but SkyWest denies LOA's...?
Correct me if I am wrong, but we didn't offer health benefits with our LOA's like SKW is now, did we? That might be one reason why less people accepted them. ASA is and will continue to be the perennial loser in the current relationship we have with the parent company and DAL. I agree to at least offer these leaves to make it seem like the company cares. These furloughs could have been mitigated by additional leave packages on par with what skw is putting out. Cant argue with facts and ASA has now managed to furlough 130+ back to Nov 07, lose airframes, lose most and soon to be all ground handling stations, facing possible maintenance consolidation and implemented North Korea style censorship on OurASA. The st george dream is turning into a nightmare for those affected
