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.

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.

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.
