Default No common ground with corporate

It feels like I have no overlapping interests with the company anymore. They care about jerking me around and making my life hell over petty issues, large issues, and are disrespectful to try and anger me.

Who knows what the fleet plan will be, or if a change of leadership will ride in this year or later, to lecture us all about our bad attitudes and tell us we must sacrifice more for the sake of the brand.

When you don't have a leg to stand on, resort to name calling. See you in fourth period, LOL!

I flew a week of BSL-CDG turns two months ago (Jan. ‘25). Our loads were between 50k-35k, tapering down to the lower end of the range as the week went on.

That is quite a bit higher than what I typically see on the domestic routes I normally fly.

how many credit hours of flying have been given up? What percentage of our total CH is that?

Would be nice if the union scope committee posted this information. Now it is all just speculation. Facts get things done.

yeah i don’t know how people have no clue how bids work, what’s happening to the flying, how the contract works, or a general idea of what’s going on outside of what time to show up to work over the next 4-8 weeks, yet just a few years ago claimed this airline was top tier and the contract was da bomb.

great stepping stone to get to a legacy, whenever hiring fires back up.

You mean like the old MEC/NC that said we weren’t losing any flying in EU and that the ASL 737’s were just more visible because they’d moved operations from LGG to CDG? How did that play out?
