It's one thing not to have long/short language in the contract. However, doesn't your hotel committee have to inspect and approve the quality of the hotels before you stay there? I thought that was standard ALPA. Why are they approving such crap hotels?

We aren't approving them. Company is unilaterally imposing hotel changes, violating the contract. Hence the 'class action' grievance filed a few days ago.

I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Trenton. There's nothing within a 1-1/4 mile walk of this place to get any food. Sometimes the van is available to shuttle, sometimes it's not. Sometimes they offer to stop at the sub shop on the way from the airport, sometimes they won't. Nice enough place, but it's in the middle of freaking nowhere.

Trenton sucks. I too am surprised. For all the same reasons you mentioned.

If you are stuck in Trenton and looking for a somewhat healthy eating option, there is a hospital nearby that has a cafeteria. Not that this makes the hotel acceptable, but until we get a better hotel for this layover, something to consider.

Good call on the hospital. I may check that out.

To be clear: I'm not excusing the hotel "because they treat us nice." I'm as tired of hearing that rationalization as anyone.

If the shuttle is unavailable, can you call 911 for an ambulance?

The LGA hotel is close enough to Rikers we can try some prison food too. Anyone know how long the hotel arbitration is gonna take? Will it be fast tracked?
