100% not true. Retention bonus does not go away. Teamcare would end, but it wouldn’t vanish overnight. There would be a transition into whatever the company provides for other employee groups.

Guess everybody would be changing then, which was really my point from before. Teamcare or not, the company will offer everyone some type of healthcare option. We would be no different.

Pure Greg Unterseher scare tactic, like suggesting everyone would be at risk of losing health care coverage.
Think about it - if "Agreements/LOA's/MOU's between the company & Teamsters are invalid", then that means our entire CBA also goes away?
Doesn't work that way.

You would lose Teamcare. The Team in Teamcare is Teamsters. You'd have to go back on the company plan which sucks about the same as every other airline's plan sucks. Teamcare was the best thing about working there. I miss the insurance and some of the people and not much else.
Teamsters self insures through plan premiums. BCBS just administers the plan. Allegiant switched other groups because it's cheaper for them that way.

The company in the past has claimed we wouldn't necessarily lose them, maybe the rebranded teamcare we would, but i think we would lose the group rate, ie the cost to the company would go up.
