Generally reserves don't get "double" pay, but it goes on top of the guarantee so that's a huge positive. IA is basically the same. Good luck |
Yep, Just talked about Terminal F in ATL, Fuel pricing and European Pricing. Nothing special.

That's why it'd be ideal if the negotiators notes were made available with the TA as their admissible in a grievance hearing. There's all sorts of stuff in every contract that is governed more by the section 6 process than the language.

1 The TA is approved and then RA says "whoops, I think the pilots got way too much for what I had planned. My fleeting opportunity turned into an ALPA windfall, those darned ALPA negotiators!" -or- 2 The pilots vote in the TA, RA's "fleeting opportunity" is revealed, and the pilots say "This is just another LGA slot swap scam! I shoulda voted HellNO! ALPA should have seen this coming!" |
Not anymore... I've sat 3 with a 4th tomorrow... that's bucket 2. The other dude is still in bucket one with 1 short call If I understand it right...

Jack, I agree with this. Seems like it happens with some stuff every contract. That being said, it'll happen in a contract 5 years from now too....... Denny |
