Company is ignoring dumbass scope cry babies.
The ASL 737's are carrying heavier loads than most domestic 757's. The difference is domestic scope. See how that works?

Don’t know how long you have here but if you want to make it to retirement you want FedEx to make good business decisions and be around .

If you were a commuter guy you obviously didn’t have a problem wet leasing yourself to the majors.
If we still had access to company flight schedules, I bet you would see two 737s or one 73 and an ATR flying into many of those former 75 cities. But it’s still cheaper for the company, so you’d be all for it.

ATR yes, 737 no. Try again

I know you've already read this from the Sea Lawyers thread since APC seems to be your only source of entertainment, but I'll put it here anyway and you just continue to choke on purple kool-aid despite facts.

__________________________________________________ ___________________________

This is how our Brown Brothers have dealt with scope issues for overseas flying. It can be done.


"Adding to Paul's post, several important scope wins that our past negotiators secured include:

"The Company, its affiliates, the Association, and their successors agree, that in connection with any dispute before an arbitrator or in court, not to raise as a defense the non-applicability of the Railway Labor Act to international operations as defined in C. above or flights which originate or terminate in the United States."

That means they can't subcontract current IPA Europe flying, for example, by claiming the RLA doesn't apply there.

"At the Association's option, any grievance filed by the Association concerning the Company's subcontracting of work or the scope provisions of Article 1 will proceed directly to the arbitration within thirty (30) days of the filing."

That means scope disputes are resolved quickly, instead of the standard and lengthy grievance process (file, appeal, system board, etc).


As pointed out above, the arbitrator awarded substantial damages to the IPA in recent disputes. For example, when the Company tried to use a handful of subcontracted aircraft in violation of the scope clause, the arbitrator awarded the IPA $13. 9M in damages."

Can you provide the source that will corroborate this information?

So why are there MorningStar 767's flying UPS freight in Europe? Doesn't UPS fly 767's? What did Fedex have to agree to for the EU to approve the purchase of TNT? How would their scope fair if the EU required Fedex to keep all ASL pilots in order to aquire TNT? What are the details of the case the OP is talking about? $13.9 million is really that much compared to our 2022 and 2023 wetlease penalty payments.

UPS must have been wet leasing like nobody’s business because like mentioned above there are at least 15 Morningstar 767 on their CGN ramp during their night sort. Guess UPS awesome scooe isn’t as awesome as you think

Cabotage routes.

Doesn't UPS fly 767's?
IPA pilots have flown and continue to fly intra-Europe routes that aren't cabotage.

Please confirm CDG, BGY, EMA, LYS, MRS, OPO, into CGN are considered cabotage routes?
