And to boot the company want's a 25% hour reduction (ready ALV) for furlough protection through the end of the year, not June of '21.
So there's that.
So there's that.
Dispatchers are as or more important than pilots.

All I’m saying is that I believe this has higher odds of passing than the odds that DALPA and management come to an agreement to save UNAs. I suspect that the VEOP is as good as it gets.

JL actually tried to answer the 220/UNA/October Situation by stating it could impact operations but then mentioned reinstatement rights, another AE, and working with ALPA, while using the PWA. Not verbatim but the whole gist was “we see the mountain visually, thinking about our path”.
