Just rumor right now. Merger with a amalgamation of current contracts. Voted on, when rejected, long drawn out process to follow. YEARS to a new contract!

Man, less then a year on here and I am updating resumes, what a shame. Love the job and crews, but if they think I would take even one concession, forget it. All in.

Let's wait and see what the union puts out, before we jump to conclusions. I am hoping that both SAI and AWW put some correspondence out as well, that way we can at least get a better idea of what is going on from multiple perspectives.

Generally, from what I have heard, (someone in attendance) is that it is not going to be immediate, but that overall it will be ok.

Things just can never be easy.

What we have been saying at SAI, since the announcement of the acquisition, "Cautiously Optimistic". Still holding that course.

Hoping it gets better, soon!

The company isn't just going to roll out the red carpet for the pilots. Just another fear grenade lobbed over to our side to instil doubt that we can truly get a leading contract. Maybe give the process a chance before grabbing an escape reel and jumping overboard. The merger isn't even a month in and only a single (very productive) negotiations meeting. This race is far too early to guess a winner.

The rumor is they scrapped the TAs from that "very productive" negotiations meeting.
