AMR/APA agree to 2 pilots sharing a hotel rm
 
Here it is:

I'm betting the UAL CAL pilots are jealous of this...This is why American was my only choice straight out of design school. I never applied to CAL/UAL/DAL because they believe in separate hotel rooms.

I'm voting "Yeth" :) (insert Rainbow smiley)

"There may be certain unusual isolated situations of a temporary nature where single occupancy accommodations, as stipulated above, cannot be obtained at a daily rate of sixty-five dollars ($65) or less. Under such circumstances,double occupancy in a double room will be acceptable until single occupancy accommodations are again available at this rate."

7576... you jumped the gun a little there bro. First, they are talking about a day room when there is more than a 5hr sit... i.e, "rest on duty".. 2nd, this has been in our contract for years and has never been enforced to the best of my knowledge (for good reason.)

They are not talking about regular layovers.

Still voting No!

aa73...don't you think this would allow you to 'bond' with your fellow crewmembers?

ForeverFO 11-13-2012 08:14 AM

If this ever happened, I would immediately call in sick and have myself removed from the trip. If necessary, I'd get my own room.

Yeah, I'll "bond" with them on the phone as I explain, "you can have the room, I'm suddenly feeling fatigued."

Mesa had a provision like this for Continuous Duty operations. After a crew filmed themselves getting down to their underwear together and sent the video to the local TV station Mesa management decided to come up with the extra bucks for individual rooms.

My guess is just the legal bills for a sexual harassment complaint would be over $25,000 per occurrence and more like $150,000 if it went to trial.

Yes, i did jump the gun a bit. It is in our old contract (WE DO NOT HAVE A CONTRACT) and it was for breaks in day room 5 hours.

My apology

Just to prove I'm an everlasting dork... Midnight. This is an inside joke of another website and if you don't get it, that's a very good thing.

Faith restored, that was getting close to rolling into a full day and no response.

Same room with a fellow NAAtive pilot, how exciting. We can have pillow fights and tell ghost stories. Funny how times change, you can be looking down your nose at a fellow professional, then having to share a room with them.

KillingMeSmalls 11-15-2012 09:05 AM

I will pay money for the first picture of two male American pilots (in uniform) going into the same hotel room. Livin' the dream.

Hey Homes... for a point of history the original Piedmont of the 50's used to do this for the overnight! And, as an added bonus, they had male pursers who used to share the room as well! Bet it sucked to be number 3 for the shower in the morning!

Ahhhhh, the 50's! Right where I like my FAs to be from!

See ya round the Ashburn!

Holy crap, I thought you were joking. It's actually in there.

So a male Capt and female FO sharing a room is OK? I'm not sure if that will play with the wives club. Really shows how low an opinion AA mgmt has for the well being of their crews. They are probably having a good laugh though.

KillingMeSmalls 11-17-2012 06:34 AM

I think there is a secret agenda going on.

Who am I kidding? This is the real agenda. Any requests? I can put his head on anybody.

Well, if you won't share a room, how about sitting around the campfire?:D:D:)

Does seniority rule when choosing big spoon or little spoon?

I'm definitely bidding with the hottest female Capt I can find.
