In case the link isn’t working, look for the Engage podcast on global scope. They cover it

The Negotiators Notepad for that section shows that this is N/A for 150 day bids.

I spoke with the ALPA attorney briefly about it. He claimed they didn’t want Delta NB to cover WB block hours. I thought this was a lazy response. In my opinion it very easily could have been included in global scope as requiring 50% of NB block hours and include language that NB hours cannot meet the WB requirement.
I assume Delta will find a way to operate at the minimum required block hours. To me partner NB flying is one way for them to get there, and the % of seats allowed Delta on those flights is unacceptable.
I also think the minimum required WB block hours is too low.

Family commitments required me to leave before the scope presentation. I hope they post an online version. I really want to like this agreement, and hopefully something in the presentation convinces me to be a yes.

So let me understand...you want a sales job? I thought those were verboten? Just vote NO and be done with it. No need to agonize over it...then you can have bragging rights until you retire(if you can consider being in a vast minority bragging rights)

My apologies I forgot to thank you for ferreting out that silver slip soak piece. That was some good due diligence on your part.

Thanks

No sales job required, and my No vote is in. Judging by the MEC 17-0 I might be the only No.
I am hoping there is a better explanation than this for the NB hidden somewhere in a presentation.

We already have NB protections built in to the existing section 1 scope. This deal expands our protections for WB flying/growth compared to what we already have. The deal was specifically done in order to protect Delta WB flying. It’s not really meant to adjust the NB flying protections that already exists.

Interesting note: according to the union voting email that came out today, if the global scope TA is voted down there “is no requirement for either party to revisit global scope negotiations”…

I saw that. I’m of the opinion that the company wants global scope badly so they can rotate flying between theaters.

I guess I missed that in the NN. Pretty disappointing that it won’t be available for the bast majority of our bids. You’d think once the programming is done, it wouldn’t be any more difficult to include all the bid periods.
