I think we are being unfair to the MEC. They know how to reject things. I heard from a fly on the wall that the following were some of the rejected C2015 TA bumper sticker slogans by our MEC. Way to go, guys! (Couldn't get strikethrough to work on the forum. Work with me.)
Holding the Line on Scope
Protecting Hard Fought Gains
Taking Delta for All They've Got!
Trading 190s for Widebodies
Self-Funding - This Time We'll Own It!
Because Self-Monitoring Sick Leave is Such a Hassle
Our Chance to Give Back
Aircraft Freezes are Cool
We're For Change
Because Delta Can't Manage This Airline Without Us
We Love to ***** - And it Shows
Work Rules are Over-rated
Winning!
Finding Ways to Get You Out of the House More
Sacrifices Rewarded
Investors - $6 Billion - New Profit Share Trigger = Awesome!
Restoration at Long Last
Eliminating LCA Trips? Where Do I Sign?
There were other suggestions that didn't get voted on, but our MEC held strong on these. When the winning entry was offered, it passed 11-8:
We Meant the NEXT Next Time!

I hate to admit this may be a point. The union did "the best" they could with this TA, so why would we expect anything different from them if we vote this down.
I'm with Denny Crane on the math, this is like a 3% raise vs getting parked for the duration.
Sorry, I don't call in sick really ever, so I have to leave that one to the rest of you.
The rest is kind of 'meh' for me as well.

I would caution you on your opinion towards sick leave. You just never know what's going to happen....... Better to be safe than sorry on that one.

APCF FAQ ABOUT TA2015
Let me try this.
If you have a question about the TA or see a good question and you don't want it lose in the avalanche of posts, send me a PM and I'll save it on to this word document.
If we get a DALPA answer, in all fairness, I'll post it. You can of course write a follow up question if you don't like the answer.

I think you pretty much got it!
Dalpa said they came to a separate resolution of the JV grievance. I think that's an outright falsehood. If they did, then everything in the contract would be in the grievance settlement. This now begs the question: What is in the rest of the JV settlement? What happens if the TA is rejected?

Well the JV settlement, which we don't know what the details are yet, and this TA obviously means parking 757's and swapping them for 737-900's, adding 20 E-190's, and our JV partners getting widebodies.

- Virgin Atlantic [VA.UL] plans to decide within six months on how to replace seven Boeing 747s it flies from London’s Gatwick airport, and could expand its overall fleet in the process, the British airline’s chief executive said Thursday.
- When Virgin Atlantic decides, he said, the order “will be replacement, plus."
- Virgin’s service to Detroit is part of a broader expansion of the airline’s trans-Atlantic service in collaboration with U.S. airline Delta Air Lines, which owns a 49 percent stake.
- Virgin has shifted more planes to trans-Atlantic routes this year after shutting down service to certain other destinations, including Mumbai, Vancouver, British Columbia, and Capetown, South Africa.

If you are even considering voting yes, just remember this.
The elites are laughing at our ineptitude.

In a Wednesday research note, JPMorgan analyst Jamie Baker called the deal "a welcome revision to the industry's most generous profit sharing program."
