The ink isn't even dry and here comes the camel sticking his nose into the tent. In an effort to prevent additional furloughs and downgrades, the company out of the kindness of their heart, has offered us a way to POSSIBLY reduce furloughs and downgrades by significantly adjusting section 25. These adjustments will be in the form of major changes to the QOL and pay sections to our contract. All these changes DO NOT guarantee that these furloughs will not happen.

As with anything that requires a vote, I ask that you read the whole document. This is changing the lives of the entire group to again possibly save a very few. And anyone that thinks furloughs are coming hasn't been paying attention to the fact that we can't staff the airline. When the CP is sending out letters begging for pilots to fly overtime, you know there is a problem.

This last contract passed by 84%. It is time that the company AND the pilots start to live by that contract. Enough is enough. Vote NO. Get the 65 back first and then we can talk. We need to show unity now more than ever.

 

who in the heck is AS?

 

I'm guessing Alaska.

 

There are 60 furloughees.

Have any of the next batch received letters yet? Maybe they'll come later in August.

In the last month the stock is up 23.32%.

 

Letters will be sent out on/by September 1.
