What does this mean to new hires? Will they now be asked to go to the crappy domiciles of Virgin?

Longevity ....yes
Career Expectations.....no

Make your voice heard to your respective MECs and let them take it from there. Best of luck to all.

ALPA merger policy will govern. Variables include comparing pay/bennies though. Should favor Alaska, but only slightly IMO.

VA pilots should not bump our Capt's or delay our upgrades. If they can't do anything else, then keeps the lists separate.

Ooooooh, internet tough guy!

Both carriers being ALPA, it can't be a staple job. Having said that, since Virgin pilots do not have a ALPA CBA, how is that going to impact the SLI? I hope that this doesn't turn into another east vs. west debacle. Both pilot groups have to be realistic but Virgin boys & girls probably will not fare well on the SLI for the most part, depending on one's perspective. It's just my guess and pure speculation at this point. Interesting times ahead for sure.

Which says that everything is negotiable in regards to SLI.....

None of us want VA guys above us. I just have the balls to say it first. If ALPA screws us, then I want them off property as I no longer want to pay for a union that doesn't look out for my best interest no matter what the issue.

VA shouldn't definitely hire Katz as their attorney. He's the best. You Alaska guys should even offer to pay his fees for VA.

Get used to the term "fair and equitable". That's the goal. Each merger turns on it's own factual circumstances. Looking to other mergers is mostly a waste of time. This Marathon hasn't even REMOTELY begun. Don't spin yourself into hypertension this early on.
