Could you post the quoted statement fir those of us on the outside looking in?

thanks Boomer!!

I hear that the hard part is getting people to show up for the interview. Word is no-shows are in the 60-80% range.

I wouldn’t recommend this airline as a career destination to anyone right now. Apply elsewhere, candidates. Somewhere the pilots have suffered sufficiently, perhaps.

They won't ever care. Isn't that why we're buying another airline? That gives us pilots for, I don't know, another 2 years so management can figure out the attrition/ attraction problem.

To rename a plane from a previous post:
Yellow. Blue. In '22. Hut. (because it's always a fake:))

(:) added to reduce liability...I don't have a VPN)

Just like Spirit, Visa program !

I’m not gonna post internal emails, but the gist of what the union said was that the company feels gains at other companies were “earned” after years of negotiating, and because we haven’t been negotiating that long, we haven’t “earned” commensurate gains. Having not seen any actual numbers, I’m not sure what that means exactly, but if that sentiment is accurate, it strikes me as unneccessarily counterproductive.

The company email should be out any time now…..

I believe the sentiment is accurate. Just check the last "negotiate update" that the company sent. They said it there plain as day

JCBA should be fun…… lol

The stuff in quotes is, you can bet, verbatim from notes. No way they’d paraphrase something that inflammatory, put it in quotes, and risk libel.

Since this email is not internal and was sent to my private email account, I’m comfortable posting it. In fact, I think it’s important it is widely distributed.

Here’s the meat:

“Although the parties made some progress, we remain apart on pay and per diem. Management remains resistant to including profit sharing improvements as part of an agreement. The Association’s proposals take into account both ratified agreements and others where the terms have been made public, including those that have not ratified. Taken together, this approach most accurately captures the state and direction of the market for professional pilots. The industry trend is plain to see, and we intend to achieve an agreement that reflects the upward slope.

Management has claimed that only properties that have been engaged in protracted, multi-year bargaining—“some…nearly four years past the amendable date of their current contract”—have “earned” the level of pay and benefits that is both evident and expected industry-wide. We flatly reject this premise.”
