Mesa Pulls PBS
Just heard that PBS has been pulled by the company. Apparently they served 45 days notice today of their intent to pull PBS.
Now the pilots lose PBS (which is FINE by me! Heck yeah!) but we also lose:
1. Scheduled or Actual
2. Line Guarantee
3. 100% Cancellation Pay
I thought the company might pull this stunt, but I had just decided they would want to keep it.
The only problem now, is how are we going back to the paper bids? I believe we do not have the old software that created the lines before PBS. I'm pretty sure what's going to happen is the company is going to use PBS to create lines, and then the pilots bid for said lines. So everyone will pretty much have unstacked schedules. I am not sure - I guess we'll have to wait to hear from the union to find out.
