I agree with you. I was speaking in generalities. But I do think this should be in our contract. Not LOA. Will this go to memrat?

 

Absolutely will go to memrat.

 

well I’ll be damned

 

Let's suppose that Asia comes roaring back but South America is in the toilet. With this, and clearly I've not seen specific language, the company could easily show that overall JV flying is down and thus would not need to add jobs all while Korean is growing like crazy. Unless there are specific theater protections, this shouldn't pass. We have a tendency to overlook things and then wring our hands when it bites us later. I'm hopeful, but without specific language that protects us in all theaters so they can't just move chess pieces around to keep our flying low, it's a hard no.

 

All this makes absolutely no sense. A WB job is a WB job. While the agreement is global based there will be some level of theatre protection. In the Grand Scheme of things this Agreement provides:

Delta reestablish pre COVID WB flying levels

Combined JV partner WB growth one for one with Delta WB Metal

Immediate job based penalties for non compliance that is measured quarter by quarter with no cure period

Explain to me specifically how this makes no sense? This is a win for management other than the job based remedy.

 

Do Delta pilots not know how to read?

The path forward includes:

When contractual language is finalized, the TA will be provided to your elected union representatives for a seven-day review (per the MEC Policy Manual).

The MEC will review, discuss and vote on the TA while in session (either at the June Regular Meeting in MSP or a Special MEC Meeting).

If the MEC votes to approve the TA, it will be sent to the pilots for membership ratification. A multi-faceted communications plan will commence (Negotiators’ Notepad, Virtual Town Hall, FAQs, podcast, etc.).

This agreement has been reached independently from the current Section 6 negotiations. This provides Delta pilots the opportunity to evaluate whether the agreement stands on its own merits.

You, the line pilot, will ultimately decide whether the new scope language becomes part of our PWA.



I'm not explaining to you how your nonsensical post makes no sense. Your further post about Memrat shows you haven't even read the Union update and here you are making nonsensical theatre drawdown hypotheticals

How would a NYC 737A (from your own posts), not on the MEC, know all the intricacies of this agreement if it hasn’t even been worded yet?

 

It should be noted that these outside-of-section-6 global scope negotiations have been going on since before the pandemic. I have no idea what kicked it off and who wanted it as a separate deal but it’s been clear all along that there would be a global scope TA with memrat and a full section 6 TA as well.

If you read the company’s update they still had to negotiate other items outside the global scope deal in order to fully close section 1, so this deal isn’t even the entirety of section 1, but rather a key cornerstone for building scope upon.
