TED,

Hix beat me to it, but the DALPA Negotiating Committee put out a detailed (56 pages long) contract comparison back before we took the survey.

You can find it linked here (must be logged in):

Contract Comparison

I would highly recommend logging in and clicking on the Contract 2015 Banner. There is a ton of information in there that is intended to keep the pilot group up to speed on the past/present status of C2015 negotiations.

If you don't want to "hunt the info down" yourself, I suggest signing up for PilotBlast on the DALPA Homepage. Click the red icon in the upper left corner that looks like a smartphone.

Once you put your info in, you can select to receive notifications of only the information that you are interested in. I primarily use it for bid reminders and alerts for when my category's awards are published, but you can also sign up for "C2015 Negotiations Update Alert" to receive a text anytime DALPA publishes something about negotiations.

Thanks! New to the website, so I was unfamiliar. I've gotten in to look at the negotiation updates ("some people meet with some people"), but wasn't aware of everything on there...

Love the blasts!

Does anyone have an idea why the trips I asked for got awarded to junior guys and I got uncomutable trips on exact same days?
I am guessing I should call ALPA?

We are doing both islands in 10 days total including travel time. effectively 4 days on the north and 4 on the south.

We were in Auckland for 2 days (second day did a morning city tour including Mt. Victoria, then took the ferry to Waiheke island that afternoon/evening). On day 3 did a bus ride to the glow worm caves in Waimoto, to Hobbiton, then in Rotorua for 2 nights. The next day we did the cultural museum and then the geyser and Maori stuff at Te Puia.

Yesterday flew from Rotorua to Christchurch to Queenstown. Pretty laid back day today, but did do the gondola to the top of the hill. Tomorrow is the big Milford Sound excursion, and sat/sun I'm renting a car so we can drive around and see the countryside.

So, yes... it is possible to hit the big sights on both islands in 10 days!

PM coming your way.

Spend a few minutes looking at the reasons report. It will give you a breakdown of the PBS logic that awarded your line.

Wrong as usual. They will have 2 jumpseats. That was settled at least 5 months ago.

Good news, I was quoting a check airman on the 320 who was just told that. I hope your right.
