Scope Language out
 

New thread to discuss global scope separately. The info is on the DALPA site. It’s worthy of it’s own thread here.

Reading it now and will add thoughts later .

After a cursory read….I’m not seeing how the company isn’t going to just claim, or manufacture, “circumstances out of their control”.

No protections in regards to the Aeromex and West Jet JV. That’s a big fail.

There currently is no WestJet JV.

trans-border is outside of global scope. it's a separate negotiation.

Why was narrow body flying not negotiated in this?

I think because it is meant to increase widebody jobs at delta. Fingers crossed it doesn’t have the reverse effect. Haha

I get that, but as partners airlines switch to smaller aircraft to do transatlantic and South America flying the ratio will lower the total number of block hours we are required to maintain.

The economics of a NEO doing flights might not make sense compared to a 350 on some segments, but it will on others. In my opinion the fact that we failed to include what is an obvious industry trend in this global scope TA is a fail.

Are delta pilots truly worried about not enough narrow body jobs in our bid packet?

How many NB have the range to go any further than BOS-LHR?

Aeromexico (and WJ) still falls under old language.
Also not expecting Mexican wide bodies to takeover GDL-SLC or MEX-DTW.
