ive heard rumors Alaska might be winding down their airbus operations, if true, this might open up 320 sim time.
The 300 block of 88 sims were done in LAS a few years back, too.

Any guesses on how many will be saved by 20-04, if any? The reduced TLV I would think would require more butts in seats.

You mean saved at full pay vs 30 hours? The TLV changes won’t really drive staffing until the TLV starts coming up off the bottom and hits the new, lower cap.

Rough math. Say a 2% increase in Pilots with the lower TLV. 12,000 Pilots x .02 = 240 Pilots at most. This would be the case if the TLV was right at the maximum, if the TLV is not maxed out and until it is the difference will be somewhat lower all the way down to negligible.

Without doing the math, the company's stated they needed something like 9700 pilots to fly 2021's planned summer schedule. That number was probably based on some countries opening up and continual domestic improvement. At the moment, I'm thinking the actual passenger numbers are under-shooting their expectations with the way everything has been shutting down again (They had planned on being revenue neutral by the end of the year, now they're saying they'll be losing $8-10M/day or something like that).

So, personally, I don't think it'll save any of us 1721 in the near term. Retirements, the lower TLV, and summer 2022/23/24 needs are what will determine when we all come back.

Then why not WARN the bottom 2000 pilots every month?

because that makes the warn notices invalid

https://www.dol.gov/sites/dolgov/fil...erWARN2003.pdf

“The postponement is for 60 days or more, in which case you must receive a new WARN notice. Routine periodic notice, given whether or not a plant closing or mass layoff is impending, and with the intent to evade specific notice as required by WARN, is not acceptable.”

this is from the federal law, which requires 60 days notice. NY and a few other states require 90

SK from the ALPA Sched Committee said e lower TLV would equate to approx 300 more pilots required.

So I haven't seen a "Pro/Con" paper nor any opinions from the no-voters since this passed the MEC. Do those exist? With 20-03 LAX was Johnny on the spot putting out their side, so I'm a little surprised it's been so quiet this time around.

That’s because 20-03 had to be sold.

This doesn’t. This will pass easily. I am sure the union thinks that if they got 20-03 to pass at all, this one passes easily.
