Assuming all of that is accurate, way to go PSA.

We’re not privy to exactly what was asked for. Rumor mill has said they asked for just about everything except hourly rate (Min guarantee, tiered pay, sap). The union tossed some temporary relief ideas, but they weren’t interested. So last week the negotiators walked out and told them let it ride. They’re sending just about the whole 730 furlough letters and downgrading upwards of 300 captains. Taking it on the chin, but we’ll get through. Hope for less turbulence for you all in the coming weeks.

Thanks for the info. Sorry to hear it’s going to cut so deep. This whole thing is going to be ugly for quite a while.
This, plus the company not wanting to negotiate in good faith, plus ignoring the issues with crew scheduling, crew pay, and crew planning getting away with doing things that benefits them and not following the contract. Our pilots said to hell with it, hard no to concessions. Quite frankly I was even against temporary relief as the I believe the company overplayed their hand with constant increasing with furlough numbers. |

Yeah, they started with a displacement but with 530 pilots the. A week later rescinded the bid and increased it to 600 to put pressure on our MEC. Then a few weeks later rescinded the bid to increase the number of furloughs to continue to put pressure on our MEC.

It is. “See you in 2023 or bankruptcy. Whichever comes first”... Assuming they don’t just wind us down completely anyway.

This is definitely NOT the PSA of 6 years ago. We had one of their reps on a flight to CHA a couple months back. As we walked to the hotel he tracked us down and we had a rather lengthy chat about what was going on over there. We came away with a good feeling about the changes is attitude of the representation over there.
Thanks guys for taking a stand. |

I m sure our MEC will hold strong as long as the company doesn't offer a percentage increase in flow. If that happens, who knows... :(

Yeah no way would they take even that. The flow is useless right now and everyone knows it.
