Curious how this affects you as a passenger and your future travel plans with AA. Would you fly them again? Do you have frequent flier status on AA?

Amen to that!

It really depends on how long the disruptions continue and if it impacts my business. Being delayed on the flight out where all I lose is an hour in a hotel room isn't horrible. Missing a meeting, getting stranded away from home on a Friday evening, etc will begin to move the frustration needle.

Yes I am an EXPLT. As an EXPLT AA has been very good to me and kept me in moving whenever normal IROPS happen. I don't live in a hub city so I have two main choices if I don't count WN. If the other carrier makes me an offer to switch and I may consider, but not sure I am at the point I would listen right now.

Although most of us are sympathetic to the disruption of your individual plans, individual customers at this point are the casualties of an antiquated labor law system that allows management to freely gut career expectations with little recourse. I submit that a carrier that has openly declared warfare on its employees is unlikely to experience exemplary service and reliability as a result.

.....especially when it's been going on for close to a decade. One could argue that under those circumstances , sooner or later these chickens will come home to roost and it appears there is finally a pecking sound on the front door.

Yes, you are correct... during the BOB days the NWA pilot group slowed daily ops to an absolute crawl. It seemed that 99.9% of the pilots performed BOB and NWA mgt changed its tune over night. The only way for this type of thing to work is to have the entire AA pilot group working together.

Underfly? What the hell is Underfly? There shall be no such thing!

Our local radio megastation WBAP is going ballistic right now with the talk show host reaming the pilots... again.

We knew this was going to happen. It's getting ugly.

Time for ALL pilots to draw a line in the sand. Not just AA pilots but ALL other airlines as well. It is time to educate the general public that our professions downward spiral has/will trickle down to ALL other industries as well. All other organized labor groups, regardless of industry, are feeling the rape and demise of working agreements that have taken decades to achieve.
This struggle is not just about the AA pilots, its about ALL US LABOR!!
As pilots WE have failed miserably in educating the masses how our struggle is in many ways the same struggle as teachers, firemen, police, auto industry workers, ALL pensioned employees, etc, etc.
The general public will not sympathise with OUR cause unless we educate them on how parallel ours is to "their" cause.

Yesterday it was me. The day before it was United. The day before that it was USAir. Where were you then?
