I have to agree with Miami gangster (CP). If your health is truly at risk call out sick. And call the resume prep. folks. Remember as a pilot for these clowns you have NO protection. I’m sure Swift/iAero is grasping at any flights they can get at this point just to keep the aviation side alive. NO March Madness, NO Cuba, NO Europe, ICE is melting away. The Swift trucks can’t run fast enough for the likes of WallyWorld. Unless they can do a quick freighter conversion on those beat up 37’s I’m afraid they’ll follow Miami Air into chapter 11.

Jungle drum has it that two Swiffies have come down with the Cronies.
Anybody care to confirm?

Almost all of us will have it at some point. Irrelevant if 2 people have it or not.

A better question is what protections are in place for crew members that are diagnosed before, during, or after an assignment?

The only two places I am venturing is home and work. If I didn’t get it at home then work is where I get it from.

other side of what
we are not affiliated with the trucking
we have two new ice bases so it’s ramping up not tapering off
sports will come back soon as will casinos

for those of you that think I’m the CP, you’ve obviously never read one of his emails

o LOA between management and crew members that minimize impact to the overall operation.
o Allowed to call in sick without repercussion.
o Cleaning crews contracted to aggressively clean airplanes every night.
o Basic cleaning supplies provided to all crew members. Not for just in the plane but for use at the hotel and in the van.
o Crew consolidation to minimize reliance on commercial air travel

Many examples out there.

Default Village idiot

Stay safe out there and don’t let the village idiot and his cronies put you in a bad spot.

Some other airlines are conducting the risk assessment before each flight providing their crews with gloves/masks/hand sanitizer and doing a diligent job with aircraft sanitization before and after each flight.

From the SAFETY AND COMFORT of his plush leather chair of his office, he speaks for the entire management team.
Callously Indifferent to the Crews.
We are not going to give you the tools to protect yourself and others, we are NOT going out to IWA, BRO, AEX ourselves, we will just send you to do our dirty work, so we can Enrich ourselves. So don't complain, shut up, do your job, or get out.
But this in nothing new. It's the only SOP's they know.
