a single payback day will drop the whole trip and pay you what the value of the first day is. You can pick the trip back up then in the next pcs run.

Delta adding Seattle flights to Maui, Mexico and more
Posted by Kristin Jackson
Delta Air Lines is adding more flights from Seattle to popular beach and ski destinations, plus regional service to Spokane, as it keeps strongly expanding service at Sea-Tac Airport and continues to give regional powerhouse Alaska Airlines a run for the money.
Delta plans to add service from Seattle to Maui plus to Cabo San Lucas and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; Calgary, Alberta; Spokane; and Bozeman, Mont.
The Delta flights will begin in November and December (international flights still are awaiting government approval). Here’s the word from Delta on the new routes:
Four daily flights to Spokane International Airport using two-class, 65-seat CRJ-700 aircraft beginning Nov. 3
Two daily flights to Calgary International Airport using two-class, 76-seat Embraer E-175 aircraft, beginning Nov. 3
New Seattle service beginning Dec. 20 includes:
One daily flight to Maui’s Kahului Airport using a Boeing 757-200.
One daily seasonal flight to Bozeman Yellowstone International Airport through Jan. 4, 2015, then Saturday service from Jan. 10 through March 28, 2015, using two-class, 76-seat Embraer E-175 aircraft.
Four weekly flights to Los Cabos through Jan. 10, 2015, then Saturday service beginning Jan. 17, 2015, using an Airbus A319 aircraft.
Four weekly flights to Puerto Vallarta through Jan. 10, 2015, then Saturday service beginning Jan. 17, 2015, using an Airbus A319 aircraft.

More Eskimo hunting?
From another thread re: Alaska
Just heard hiring will double this year. Old number 80 ish... New number 160 by the end of year. I guess they are keeping some -400s they were going to turn in. Some more new flying to be announced soon. Good luck

1. MEC Ratification Policy
a. Collective bargaining agreements that have been approved by the MEC and result from negotiations undertaken pursuant to both Section 28 of the PWA and Section 6 of the Railway Labor Act that both resolve all Section 6 issues and conclude Section 6 negotiations shall be subject to membership ratification. All other agreements shall be subject only to MEC ratification unless the MEC determines that an agreement should be subject to membership ratification.
2. Ratification Proceduresa. A draft copy of all tentative agreements, amendments, and side letters of agreement to the PWA will be distributed to the MEC so that it is in their possession at least seven days prior to a scheduled MEC ratification vote. The seven-day period may be reduced by a majority vote of the MEC.
1) If the National Mediation Board has released the parties pursuant to Section 5....
b. A draft copy of all tentative agreements, amendments, and side letters of agreement to the PWA shall not be distributed to the membership prior to MEC ratification.
Right there in 9.2.b. they cannot provide us with TA language until after it is voted in by the MEC.
I didn't know that was not allowed but it seems odd that a non Section 6 agreement can go to memory rat if the MEC wants it too but if they want to provide incredibly pertinent information about work rule changes to the membership before ratification then it's not allowed. Ever. For any reason.

OK. Make the resolution, you will have my support. I just want to know how you suggest we define "significant" so that other pilots agree.
There was outcry that pilots like PD were not getting his PD's paid back and ALPA wasn't doing anything to help.* I'm glad that worked out The delay otherwise would have been approximately 60 days. I will defer to the manual for the procedures that have to be followed since you seem to prefer brief answers. I wonder, do we know whether management would have made the same offer after the summer flying crunch?
Would you have voted for this agreement?
What benefit do you believe would have come from memrat on this agreement?

Bar. Airplane that is delayed for over 3 hrs is here. Got to run. I can address significant later tonight. In the mean time, what would you deem significant. Wording before was just that.
"Significant"
Personally, I'd reverse engineer the LOA s on the JVs and define significant with the points that later proved to be harmful to us. It's not that difficult nor a contentious issue. Obviously 117 changes and CDOs are significant.

I don't know what he was implying. I THINK he was implying that he believes the 747 is so senior and the pilots now holding it would get bumped.. I believe the 777 is more senior but I am not sure.... I know the 777 has a higher percentage of mandatory retirements coming in the nest few years...

Did it? I mean the language suggests now an insignificant agreement could be sent out to memrat. Now it is what ever the MEC wants to send out (or escape responsibility for).
I am "OK with that" because I elected my reps. I've talked to them and I trust them to make a good decision on my behalf. I am happy with the result and would have voted "yes."
How would you have voted?
(maybe I should want memrat because this would have been the first yes vote I've ever cast)

And fwiw yes if the MEC wanted every agreement could go to the memory rat.
