The rest of the contract opens up to Sec 6 in a couple years. No f ing around then I would hope.

I will admit in an not vastly educated in the process , but how does an arbitrator side with the company on zero scope constraints !?!? I mean put some protections in there for the other group .

The way they put it is the company hasn't violated the spirit of proposed scope and it's a complex issue that is best handled in direct negotiation.

My pay per actual hour blocked would still be less under that pay scale than what it is here under current book with paid transition conflict, vacation, and training drops. How much soft time are you paid here in a given year?

From the UAL contract comparison:
5:00 av duty period guarantee
1:2 duty rig
1:1.75 wocl duty rig
1:3.5 trip rig
no uniform expenses
no passport/visa expenses
meal/internet reimbursed on dh
short call 79 hr guar, 15 hour raps, 8 days off
Long call 75 hr guarantee 12 days off
parking only in domicile
no hotels for new hires, training in base, or lost RON in base
line holders 8 days off, lines built to 75-85 hrs allowed flex up to 88 a few times a year
I have verified the 8 days off with a friend who is a new hire. Has the 1745 RAP and his day "off" starts at 1245 PM. Guess they get 288 hours off a month on reserve.

Unreal. Didn't BM even specifically talk about reconfiguring the Q400's for 88 seats in his testimony?
Also from the full text of the award:
That the parties have failed to reach an agreement adding these enhanced protections
in past negotiations is not only a reflection of its intricacy but also its relative lack of
urgency.

I’m pretty sure Alaska “made it worth their while” to judge the way they did. It’s the only logical way I can get to the arbitrators ruling.
I guess the lesson is, never again agree to binding arbitration in any section of the contract...
