Yeah, baby steps here but I understand it’s frustrating for some. I hope the voluntary measures can save more which in turn could ease up company demands for an ALV cut to mitigate the rest.

Technically the MEC would have to pass the TA next week but I just don't see them turning this down. Basically now Ed can say that they actually have tried all voluntary measures to prevent furloughs. Still negotiating the "big" deal that would prevent all furloughs.

Negotiations Update
The Delta MEC Negotiating Committee (NC) has reached a tentative agreement with the Company on LOA #20-03 Voluntary Scheduling Options. The agreement, if ratified, holds off 220 furloughs until at least January, 1 2021, and provides pilots in surplus categories with several new voluntary reduced value lines upon which to bid. It will be presented to the MEC next week at the Special MEC Meeting in Atlanta in open session. Following the presentation, the LOA will be posted to the Delta MEC website.
As stated in Delta town hall presentations, the Company approached the Negotiating Committee on Tuesday with an additional proposal. This new proposal would delay the remaining furloughs beyond October 1 in exchange for temporary modifications to the contract. The NC spent the week analyzing the proposal and will brief the MEC next week at the Special Meeting for their consideration.

Has anyone seen any data on the demographics of the 1721 now on the chopping block? Now that the MEC has confirmed it's looking at "at temporary modifications to the contract", I'd like to know more details on this group. How many are still in the Guard or Reserves? What's the age breakdown? How many have families? Now that the camel has a nose underneath the tent this is important information when considering any modification to the PWA.

Do we have any active flyers who aren't UNA and can just be a full up round in October, despite not having bid? I'm not sure how the special reserve lines are created - random days where they are needed, or does the pilot have a say?
