is going to bring folks back? If you aren’t continuing to shore up your personal balance sheet by continuing or increasing your savings during the this time, let this be a wake up call. If/when you get furloughed and you don’t have enough in savings to support your family, I guarantee you your significant other and kids won’t give 2 ***** you died on the hill for some furloughed envoy cadet kid.

Idk why y’all are bashing our union members. They also need to pay their bills etc. We have furloughed pilots because management doesn’t want to negotiate with us, they want straight concessions. Our MEC is doing a pretty good job!

We furloughed because of a once in a 100 year event of a virus running around the globe. Not because we have/had people picking up open time. You think that uncovered TOL turn going to a reserve pilot (for “free” by the way)

Not sure you can blame them either. Only 35% of the people are flying that flew last year. I would expect nothing less than furloughs. Companies cannot survive without revenue and their job is not to provide jobs with no demand.
