If you can get both of them to agree it's not pay, and shouldn't be subject to dues or taxes, then you can come on here and spew your nonsense. Take your semantics bull**** to some other forum. You and everyone else here knows nobody should see a reduction in compensation for their work.
Hey even your Momma would rather I pay her hourly than some temporary bonus system.

The ENY to AA flow sits at around 65%, and last I heard, the SSP was about 61% success rate.

Until then, you would be a fool to believe DAL would treat the DGI any different than the SSP, which was not only a slap in the face to our pilot group, but in the end, proved to be a huge sucker punch. Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me. Let's wise up and demand some respect for the sake of our profession and the hard work we put in to maintain DAL quality for their passengers. Flow/B-scale/Staple or back to the drawing board. It's quite simple...

Ffs, is it known that some will take a pay cut? Maybe wait until the TA details come out before everyone gets excited

Lastly, I’m flying with a guy who knows the retired Delta pilot who is turning around the Auburn flight program. According to him, as soon as this weekend we may here of some kind of bridge program with them. This falls in line with info from other higher–ups I spoke with last month. Other major college programs are soon to be approached by Delta, too.
This has been in the works for a long time, however, the FAA still needs to approve it. Basically, Delta will recruit its pilots directly from college, pay their way with a service commitment to Endeavor, then flow to Delta. The problem with this, is that Envoy is still a much better career choice.

That's going to go over like a lead balloon without some sort of provision for those already here.

Then lead poisoning takes care of the ones that don’t leave on their own and the whole seniority list resets with grinning 20 year olds who will do anything requested.

AA's total new hires since 2012 have consisted of 65% envoy pilots. It might be a little lower now as a percentage. There's no failure rate in getting hired since all you have to do is go to a website and check a box that says accept class when offered.

This negotiation was not the place to address that.

Someone enlighten me:

Does DAL's CBA specifically give DALPA any control over who they hire?

I'm at a AA WO, and my understanding is AA can hire anyone they want, and APA's contract doesn't give them any veto power.

So bring this back to my first question, is it really DALPA that's standing in the way of a flow, or is it company culture?
