And you will undoubtedly hear a lot of rhetoric from G4 management about accellerated timelines, simplicity, flexibility, etc. The fact is, done - correctly - merger approval, SOC, JCBA, SLI, final merging of operations & employees - you're looking at 4 years out the door.

I can't find any such language in MB or AM, which is what will govern ALPA+IBT.

The G4 pilots have an interim agreement between Allegiant air llc and the pilots in the service of Allegiant air llc as represented by the international brotherhood of teamsters airline division local 2118. It is an interim agreement for retention bonuses we have been accruing since May 2023. It says in there Allegaint air llc is the “company” and the international brotherhood of teamsters airline division is the “union” collectively the “parties.” It says we get our retention bonus 60 days following the ratification of the “parties” amended cba. So we have no choice but to go with teamsters until we get that money.
This is RLA stuff, not something which a specific company or airline is likely to be able to circumvent.
The CBA is between the pilots and company.
The union brand is just the label for the specific pilots elected to represent the group. You could change unions and keep all of the same reps.
AGREEMENT EFFECTIVE
November 1, 2022 – October 31, 2025
between
ALASKA AIRLINES
and the
AIR LINE PILOTS
in the service of
ALASKA AIRLINES, INC.
as represented by the

I don't think that's correct, but of course ya'll need competent legal advice (ALPA national would know the answer, not necessarily some local guy in a strip mall office).
