Default Quality of life/schedule improvements

Is there anything in what we saw from the AIP to help us determine whether the company will be forced to improve the less than optimum schedules we currently have ? (Too many legs/day, short layover, etc)

What percentage of trips are 1 day, or 2 day, etc…
we currently have ZERO control of that.

also, how many legs per day etc..

I was disappointed that the NN had no details on this (Rotation Construction). This is the most important thing in the contract for me and many others. These boards are full of complaints about it. I would think if we had achieved anything meaningful then there would have been concrete details in the NN. But can’t do anything until we see the language.

This is my biggest concern also. The other stuff is nice and all, but ancillary, and I wish the rotations themselves (you know, our jobs) were better.

I’m disappointed at how little details the AIP summary had. We need more NN’s. I want more information. If inflation wasn’t sky high right now, I’d be a solid yes vote on the little info I have. I’m voting no due to loss in spending power. If it passes, I guess it’s time to take a 16 year upgrade.

I kept most of the comms from TA2 C2015 and the first NN after the AIP was announced came out about a week later so I can only suggest patience. I hope we get the first NN by Friday.

I suspect most of the NC time right now is in getting the actual language right in order to turn this AIP into a TA. That will take time. Patience, which is as hard for me as it is for most of us, is the order of the day.
