While there may not be a Greenbow AL, Bayou La Batre does exist.

I can only guess you're hoping to pound into everyone's head how the Alaska codeshare effects us, because the only thing any of us can do about it is convey our dissatisfaction through our Reps & contract survey.
Johnson, The Alaska code-share is touted by DALPA as being beneficial to the DAL Pilot group as a whole. While I am very skeptical about this, even if it were true, it is seriously and disproportionately harming the LAX 737 Pilots. The LAX 737 category basically lost almost all of our North-South West coast flying. The end result is our bid package is atrocious. 35% of our rotations are 4 day trips with red-eyes that pay between 17 and 21 hours. LAX has 45 of these uber-crappy rotations. SLC has 11. CVG has 4. The LAX category is much smaller than both of those bases. So basically DALPA is saying: The code-share with Alaska is good. What they are not saying is that the pain is all being felt in one category - LAX 737. Is this how a union is supposed to act? How would guys in any other category feel is DALPA allowed management to carve out exceptions to our code share/DCI agreement that was basically all shouldered by one category? This is exactly what is happening to the LAX 737 guys. So yes, George has a good reason to concentrate on the Alaska code share. Scoop |
