You’re just stirring the pot.

indigo and Will Franke are both filed as Passive investors within the last 12 months.

will Franke is getting on in age too. He’s not likely to be a factor for very long. But we do need to vote better and be willing to vote no to a TA from BB.

what factual information do you possess that points to any of these, much less all of them, actually occurring ?

I think a better attitude to have is that F9/Indigo will give up whatever it takes to keep the company running once we strike...

So are you saying we would be allowed to strike and see how many would cross the picket line like in the 80s with United and continental etc?

I personally think you will never see another pilot airline strike going forward.

I would like to point out that at first the bots diden't exist, then it wasen't really a problem, then (after it started crashing flica) the problem was addressed with a finger wagging memo, then threats with calls from the cheif pilot office. Perhaps eventually we will get to the point of actually doing something about the issue. The gas lighting on this has been just insane. The problem has not gone away because it's only a problem for the pilot group. Managment's happy and the union dosen't seem to care. They generally seem indiffrent to the issue. It has been a known issue for many years yet persistantly NOTHING HAPPENS funny.

This is a problem with cascading effects. it reduces the cost of filling trips by allowing a select few to pillage premium adds while the rest of are forced to work straght time for extra cash. It warps schedules, reserves, open time, possably even trip construction. It's also a very bad look for the Union (who gave this away in the last negotiation)who Is just to dam busy to have any kind of real solution. which is another reason the Pilot group is down on our Union. They can't fix the problems they created, and I don't even have the luxery of whineing about it to a person in real life. Yes we are all the Union thats why we all get to vote for the MEC...right (we don't)

I wonder that myself.

One thing seems certain - we are one of the smallest airlines that sells it's own tickets. If we aren't allowed to strike, then the RLA is useless (and perhaps will be the impetus for change).

don't see a strike ever happening.....
RLA construction..... presidential board

Granted, the RLA takes time to go through all of the motions, but do you honestly think that Frontier is a big enough fish in the pond to get a PEB (not meant as an insult, just as a percentage of the market)? I'd agree that the big three would get one minutes after being released into self help due to their size, but you guys are in a spot where if released, you stand really good a chance of no political interference. Use that to your advantage if the time comes. I hope you guys get a good contract without going that far, but it sounds unlikely at this point based on what I read on the interwebs.

Trying to guess if the White House would intervene in a Frontier strike is impossible. My hunch is that they would and obviously side with management and not labor but who knows? Or perhaps they simply couldn't be bothered.
