If you go to the DALPA website and select Committees from the toolbar, and then Jumpseat from the dropdown menu, there are step by step instructions for all the airlines that have non-standard listing procedures, including those that use the "myidlisting" site. The username and password for use by delta pilots is there.

I may be being overly cautious, but I don't want to just put it out here on a public website

Didn't Donatelli put out something stressing DALPA's role in enforcing the contract? Blah, blah blah.
I have received two different communication in the last month stating that Dalpa will file a grievance on the violation. The company will come in just above 47% of the EASK verses the 48.5% required. The arbitrator will have to decide the value of those jobs lost.

No listing required for USAIR. Just walk up to the gate. The other info is available as posted above.

You're supposed to ignore that detail by use of exemption SN-8 which allows for multiple robocalls at all hours during IROPS.

I'm going to walk back the above statement and issue a retraction/apology. The cluebird has informed me of the following:

Scope Compliance & Analysis (new Committee which elevated the old Codeshare Committee) and Contract Admin would be the Committee(s) to brief an impending Grievance.

Chairman Mike Donatelli has stated a group grievance will be filed April 1st.
Mea culpa. I apologize for unfairly besmirching the International committee and Captain Donatelli.

You don't think you're going to get away that easily do you?

The monetary value or the actual jobs? I'd prefer the actual jobs going forward. Back pay to the entire list (as it effects everything) wouldn't be a bad start though.

Since the company often keeps above the contractual staffing in most categories I don't see how you could effectively enforce a penalty of carrying additional pilots. In the end however a arbitrator will have to decide both the value of the contractual shortfall and the remedy. We are talking about less then Two flights per day to Europe so it's not going to be a huge settlement.

Word for the day:
Pretendisentative:
someone elected to represent you, but pays no attention to their constituency, infers they are liars until proven innocent, works generally towards the worsening of their lot in life, does whatever they want despite strong opposition from their electorate, and tells their voters how stupid and un-knowledgeable they are.

not sure if this applies to any particular person... but I can definitely see using the word.
