Wow.

Thank you.

AA pilots are now paying more in dues than ALPA. APA dues are currently 1% base, .5% assessment for a new CBA (laughable in this environment but they are still collecting it) and .5% for furloughed pilots medical coverage.

both UA and DL voted a 1% assessment for this on top of their 1.85% dues FYI

How many are furloughed at DL and UA?

I truly believe AA pilots will be better served with ALPA.

The numbers of AA pilots will guarantee leadership positions within the national ranks. The money APA brings to the table is significant (in dues dollars).

I’d love to have AA back in ALPA, I think they’d be welcome with open arms and be a tremendous asset nationally. All are welcome.

UA ALPA suspended the 1% furlough fund assessment effective 11/1 due to no furloughs through May 2021 with the passing of the LOA.

The numbers and money brought to a merger would give APA significant leverage in negotiating terms with ALPA.

The bigger union would give pilots more clout in DC, especially considering a unified PAC. Also, we would all benefit from those within the AA ranks that bring their expertise in the whole spectrum of pilot issues. I believe it would truly strengthen us as a whole.

Does ALPA offer more transparency? APA seems to do a lot “of work” behind closed doors.
