Lets not start this. AAL was losing in JFK, BOS and LAX and it wasn't because of Jetblue. We aren't chasing the corporate market at Jetblue. The 800lb gorilla of Delta airlines made the enemy of my enemy my friend.
It appears to me that Jetblue was in the power position during this negotiation and got a good deal but it also appears that AAL management is doing what it needs to do to come out of the back end of this as a dominant airline. This is probably good(using the larger view) for all of us. Either way, it has nothing to do with the pilots.

Where the hell are you getting ‘we gave up scope’ from? And the 5 hours comes with 2 more days off with snap backs in place. Again, to sit home and do nothing. I haven’t flown since the beginning of May. Our union hit this one out of the park. They literally could not have done a better job.
Our furlough avoidance plan comes out today. I'm hoping there are no concessions like the one in the JB deal.

I’m ****ed B6ALPA violated their own policy manual with regards to lowering contractual pay without memrat. I suspect there will be recalls. That said, I’m more ok with it because they didn’t drop line holder guarantee and just made line and reserve guarantee the same...and knocked off 2 days. So 2 more days off and the same credit if I just UTOd a day in normal times which I sometimes did. Work less, make less.
I’d have likely voted yes, but this needed to go to a vote.
And no credit caps? The wh0res should have been limited.

Reserves already sit at home and get paid for no work. That's the whole concept of reserve. its a 100% cost savings for the company and 100% cost for pilots who are now getting paid less money. The logic of "they get to sit at home", well pilots who get furloughed get to sit at home too. I'm shocked JBALPA didn't let this go to Membership Ratification.

If anything this deal will help reduce the number of AA furloughs via JB customers using AA for some itineraries.
