You could be going back to much worse had people voted yes.

^Very true. Glad my NO vote wasn't needed.

No, I did not. I'm not sure if I'm going to make it back now or not. I'm already taking a huge pay cut to go back, add the cost of living in a hotel or crash pad during training, transportation cost and going without a paycheck for at least 2 months.......hard to convince myself this is a good decision.

Just bid another base on the next bid, then come back after the effective date. You could probably find a crash pad for $200/mo. too.

Or just ***** about it and don't come back. Geez.

I see your point but I imagine the union would get ****ed about the status quo. If they violate the contract to pay for your hotel then why not do that for everybody? At this point it's not really about how much they care about YOU, it's how they have to keep things somewhat fair for everyone working under the same contract.

Anyone know where they are putting the new hires? Maybe I can get an extended stay rate.

Fairfield Inn North. Our rate is $41/night there.

What's the Latest at ASA/Expressjet?
 

I had a few questions for you guys.

How do they determine whether you will fly the ERJ-145 or CRJ-200 or CR7/9?

Is the updated pay table for the CRJ anywhere? APC only has the ERJ from back in Sept

Any word on current junior bases for the 3?

Thanks.

APC had the CRJ scales before they merged the pages. They haven't changed. APC has been provided the CRJ scales again via the update tool numerous times. For some reason APC refuses to actually publish this information. Here it is again:

Looks like the third time was the charm. Thanks for the insight. Anyone have any word on current/typical junior bases for each aircraft? Is aircraft type decided upon during acceptance of an offer or day 1 of training?
