They voluntarily accepted the company’s offer for a “cost-saving” alternate method of scheduling. As I seem to recall, the deals that they accepted were good through May, 2021 and unless the company finds it to be in the company’s best interest, I seriously doubt that the company is now going to allow those pilots to back out of the cost-saving deal that they voluntarily agreed to. Additionally, I’m quite sure that the PSP2 does not address it.

Yes, I realize that the ZTLs and Alt Month Schedules were offered in an effort to “mitigate furloughs” but I don’t foresee AA management being in a giving mood, when it comes to rescinding these cost-saving measures.

Not a prompt, not a poke in the eye. I'd rather keep it honest and would like to hear your thoughts.
