The "entitlement" thing made me un-dude.
Here's to a better situation for ALL of us. Cheers.

Quick question guys, how are flow through agreements handled? Are they in your contract or a seperate deal? I keep hearing these BS rumors of imminent Pinnacle and Expressjet/ASA flow through agreements, which I do not see happening.

It's not really about the jets, is about DALPA filing a grievance and then either getting the recovery obligations for ioe removed with it and not be crystal clear bout it, or never finalizing the grievance and then seeing it in the TA. It's about the process of how we got here.
Dal wants them for their mufti million dollar corporate contracts. Duh! I don't blame em. What I do not like is the process that arrived us to this point. No more no less. I too agree its small potatoes and would not sway my vote one way or another on that single item. It's the background story and process that people are hitting on that makes its objectionable.

As a side note, JAZZ lost the 757 contract. No more for them.

I doubt the talk of flow through agreements was any more than political eyewash which gets passed around at every contract negotiation.
Flow agreements facilitate outsourcing. I'd rather we hire "Delta Pilots" and give the guy a number rather than wasting time on a promise which more often than not does not end up happening (and when it did happen costs many years of longevity).

Just trying to find someone who can tell me what loopholes have caused a disaster in the current contract before we tear apart a new one. Something huge something that really cost money or jobs not just the holding company thing. Except for one FM event and an 1113 robbery we voted on all the changes that we're unf'in right now. It's like that scene in The Departed where everyone who doesn't acknowledge you is a cop.
1 D 5 That's a loophole...
3 B 6 That's a loophole...
5 A 1 That's a loophole...
LOA That's a loophole...

We won the grievance. Now we just let it go?
There sure aren't any apparent gains from giving that up in the contract.
