Base blast I got from LAX had an attached LOA but said JetBlue on it. Did you just copy and paste their LOA and is that our actual LOA?

It's out. Check your emails...its from APA. I think this will really help us. 3 different tiers of Leaves of Absence being offered..including one paid at 55 hours.

The most interesting and unique one..is the Voluntary Permanent Leave of Absence. Basically an early retirement offer for pilots aged 62 to 64.

This is great news. On a side note, I know Kirby and a few others have said that they are cutting their pay 100% and even other mansgments pay by 50%. Has Parker cut his pay at all?

If I was eligible I would have already said yes to the early out. That medical being included is huge.

I haven't heard anything about that..but doesn't mean it isn't being discussed.

But these LOAs just breathed a huge gust of life into this pilot group. The fact that there are 3 tiers including one for those pilots close to retirement is huge. My take is that many will jump on this..and in 3 to 6 months this whole corona situation will have settled down anyway.

First good news in a couple of weeks.

yes which is why every time someone says they want a BK they are talking nonsense. They may not be the sharpest knife in the drawer but with the exposure he and his buddies have NO WAY they want a BK.

Care to share.

So one is an Early Retirement LOA, one is a 55hr no fly line, what is the third LOA? Can you post them?
