What? Not this crap again. They were given access. Stop with the attempts to divide our groups even more.

The ASA MEC Scheduling committee has in fact been denied access to SmartPref, and it occurred within the last few months, not years ago. Lots of people opining here in this discussion who are nothing but bystanders repeating hearsay.

I guess ASA has started the promised smear campaign of smartpref. So when the arbitration comes back in favor of the erj side and the company walks away from negotiations, in frustration with the MEC's, as they have promised... what is the point of still acting like children? A bunch of 20+ yr captains with zero FO's to fly with them? This isn't going to end well for the lifers on either side.

training accommodations

I recently spoke with someone in the recruiting department.
They assured me hotel accommodations in training are single-occupancy hotel.
Can this be confirmed?
Also, does anyone know what hotel it is? Anything with a kitchenette? Those can save a boatload of money..
Thx!

Thanks. Any idea what hotel it is? Makes a big difference $-wise to be able to cook for yourself instead of going out...

Hotel is either Drury Inn with free breakfast and evening dinner and drinks everyday. Or fairfield inn north side with free breakfast. None with kitchen.

Arguing over peanuts on the deck of the Titanic. Bravo guys. At this point there is no reason to believe anything shall get done.

On 3...elected members of both unions punch yourselves in the face....3...2...1...go!

This has moved past embarrassing. Anyone with an opportunity to leave for greener pastures....DO IT. I surely did.
