There are 35 sections in the contract. About half of them have been TAed and those should carry through to the new contract. The only section which has been completed that has a financial affect on crew members is hours of service. So if you’re on a domestic DH the company will put you in business if the trip goes more than 8 hours I believe as opposed to the current 16 hours. I don’t know if they clipped the duty days. I heard one time they were close to working out Vacations, they just needed to finalize how much we get and how much it’s going to pay. There are reports the company finally pushed over their idea of a complete contract that included about a 10% raise but ended the additional pay for working on days off and ended rig pay for time in base. So yes, there will be changes. But I don’t think they’ll be significant.
This is a company that put out an email with 9 sentences gloating about how they’re going to start providing trash bags in the cockpit. Just let that sink in for a bit.

There are also numerous split lines that have night stops in Tampa - as the most junior guy on the CVG base would I have any hope of picking those up or does anyone have a rough estimate of when someone would be able to hold those (1/2/3/4 years ?)
Just trying to make an educated decision on Fleet choice. Appreciate any insight.

This is exactly what I was going to post. Atlas was founded in 1992, and we just got trash bags. 28 years of stealing plastic bags from hotel room closets. It's unbelievable........

Over 100 years of Boeing building airplanes and they still can’t put a garbage can in the airplane either.

I do think we’ll keep gateway. That seemed to be on the chopping block a while ago but talk of losing it has long since died off. Your guess is as good as mine though.
Scope, just like everyone else, is my biggest concern.
