This is an ALPA doc that details the steps in Section 6. It doesn't call it a "status conference", but we are at the top of p.4 https://crewroom.alpa.org/alafa/Port...06%20Final.pdf |
"will be quick"
FedEx has been working on a contract for ???? since 2021. The contract being worked out is from 2015 meanwhile, nobody ships "next day letters" (heard of a PDF file?) or "mailing tubes" with laminated presentations inside them awesome stuff |

To add to this... it looks quick, but the part of going to proffer is probably the longest and hardest thing to happen.

At least with FedEx there was a TA that got voted down. I can see us being more like ATI currently or Atlas during their last negotiation. Long hard fight. Frankie and Barry may be dead by then.
Fedex got greedy…. What was offered wasn’t a bad deal but they got high and mighty because of the Covid era when they were running full speed ahead making money hand over fist. Sucks, but it is what it is. Nothing we can do about our situation but sit back and hold strong. But yeah Franke will probably be dead and good old Barry might not make it given his lack of healthy lifestyle…. |

Spirits new rates will be out by Oct 1. Company coming after $100 million from the contract but that won’t help your cause. I’m betting spirit rates come back to what you’re making, wata ya think? That would be very convenient for Mr. Frankie. Hey any word on the “healthy food” option, did you guys come to an agreement yet for that in your new contract? I’m pretty excited about eating catering while I’m flying, good stuff! |

Alaska will have new pay rates by the end of October, maybe that will help you? $400 an hour I hear, I don’t see you getting close but maybe.

Is NK really a viable comparative business right now? |

Spirit going into bankruptcy twice has absolutely hurt us at the negotiating table with the mediators we’ve had - including the current one. |
