I suppose you must be false media.

Look, you guys are the ones who have to get a contract. So do the American pilots, along with eventually everyone else.

Reality check: how strong are the pilots unity at AS to get that contract? (Same goes for the other carriers)
As a LUS guy, I think you should probably do more listening and less talking. These AS/VX pilots have done a remarkable job of keeping calm, civil, and unified through this process. I suspect this professionalism will serve them well as they try to fix the arbitration results of their combined contract.

The LUS seniority integration cost the pilot profession millions. That cruddy contract that you guys lived under for, what, a decade? kept downward pressure on wages and work rules for the rest of the industry thanks to the childish infighting.

My respect to the AS/VX pilots on here and in the cockpits I humbly ride in. You’ve been class acts, and it will pay dividends coming up.

Honestly you come across as misery looking for company.

Glad they were able to handle it professionally unlike groups in the past.

Sorry guys - we accidentally left the gate open on the AA board and one of our trolls wandered over here.

Glad to see you guys handling the integration so well. Good luck!

That's hilarious!

The integrated AS pilot group is ready to go get ours and we are well aware that that will not happen if we do not display strength in unity.

Exactly! SD is real disappointed that the MEC turned down the company’s crap scheduling MOU deal. He hasn’t flown the line in how long? Sorry but I’ve got no respect for someone who fires Garin and talks the big talk about improving our lives when In fact he is just a Management mouth piece.

So I suppose you think we should have listened to Delta, took one for the “team” and got preferential hiring starting over at the bottom. Little do you know.

I hope that the AS/VX Pilots can do well. I wish them no ill will. Good luck on your contract. I’ll move on.

Uhhh....if you were LUS YOU WERE THE ONE living under LOA93, the cruddy post 9-11 contract for a decade...and the cost was over a billion in lost wages, not millions.
