Okay. That's a strategy I suppose.

I'm making 56.7% more now than in 2009, same seat, same airplane, no green slips either year. (We all know we got wacked twice during bankruptcy.)

We're now going to get a third new contract with a nice raise - whatever it is. American is stuck with their contract until 2020. We'll probably get a fourth contract before they get another.

Based on this alone, what tactic do you think worked best? No emotion, no conjecture. Just facts.
I think you'd admit the economic climates in '08 and today are a bit different. Losing billions as opposed to billions in profit. I disagree with your conclusion that it was the pilots asking for 50% that netted them "less".

Causation vs. correlation.

That was not the only reason, admittedly, but it lost them credibility and was one of the key reasons they netted less. For many years. And the climate is different now which is why they finally got a contract after/during their merger.

I believe it was both causation as well as incredibly poor timing in 2008-9.

Have you guys seen today's rumor on the ChitChat board?

9,6,4,4, with reductions in profit sharing to help pay for it, oh, and other manning concessions too.

Supposedly leaked by an insider to get a reaction.

Kind of like CDO's I guess.

Not my post but this is what's on chitchat: The rumor du jour:

"-- Pay on a three year deal would look like ... 9%DOS, 6% on 1/1/16, 4%, 4% ...

-- Profit sharing concession would look like this ... will go from (10% below 2.5B and 20% above 2.5B) to (10% below 4.5B and 20% above 4.5B).

-- Credit on vacation and training would stay same but "pay hours" would go up ... (possibly keep vacation credit/week at 22:45 but pay as high as 35 hrs/week) ... expect the same type of deal for CQ.

-- retirement would get 1%-2% bump to stay in line with UAL and AA

-- Also considering a base stipend between $1000 and $500/month depending on where you live ... to cover parking and cost of living expenses. (example .. $1000 for NYC and $500 for ATL)

-- We did not have time to discuss sick time or pay banding or training freezes ... (not sure my buddy asked for that info)

-- My buddy got the impression that DALPA is/was "onboard" with these numbers ... So if you disagree, you better bend some reps ears!"


I'd vote No on that. We'd be paying for most of our own "raise".

I wrote my reps a few days ago because I was hearing rumors of C12 part two. I recommend everyone do the both barrels thing with their reps. It only takes a few minutes.

Historic in DALPA speak only means something happened at a point in time.

9,6,4,4 funded by giving up profit sharing.

That's gotta be a rumor started by the DPA.

If the MEC passes that it would guarantee a decertification vote.

I couldn't agree more. That's not even in the ball park.

C12 rumors were met with the same abhorrence. But the MEC passed it. And so did 62%.
Gotta contact our reps.
