1. It is absolutely confirmed to be true that those on the property prior to the POR are grandfathered at the higher E190 pay rate. Anyone starting after Monday will be on MOU pay. Nobody takes a pay cut in this - straight from Dean Colello.
2. Under the AA CBA first-year pilots don't get DC contributions. Those on property prior to POR will continue to receive them first year, while those hired after don't start receiving until first anniversary.
3. Scheduling Committee says there WILL be another Permanent Bid coming soon ... probably for April, if not then May. Need more positions on the widebody fleets for summer flying.

Well this, plus the first year pay being grandfathered, is awesome news! Couple more questions...are we covered by the 'furlough protection' clause, whatever it really means? And, do we get any vacation for 2014?

Yes, the Airbus/Boeing $3,000 per month will hold until your anniversary date in 2014 if you were hired prior to 12/9/13. I believe they said that you would keep the 10% D.C. as well. I'm pretty sure it doesn't go up to 16% because AA's first year is $40/hr with no D.C. I could very well be wrong. Please correct me if I am.

Page 7 of the MOUv2 that should become effect December 9th, 2013:
For those who seek such detail, here?s the full MOU with USAPA and APA | Dallas Morning News
11. a. During the term of the MTA, US Airways shall not furlough any pilots who have established
and maintain seniority on the US Airways mainline system as of the Effective Date. USAPA will
provide, by name, East Pilot “X” and West Pilot “Y” who will be the most junior US Airways pilots
afforded this furlough protection. US Airways shall not furlough any such pilot in anticipation of the
transaction that results in the formation of New American Airlines or of the operationally merged
carrier consisting of New American Airlines and US Airways. The parties intend that this furlough
protection will be part of the status quo during contract negotiations pursuant to Section 6 of the
Railway Labor Act for a successor agreement to the JCBA.
b. New American Airlines shall not furlough any pilots during the term of the MTA whose
names appear on the American Airlines’ Pilots System Seniority List as of the Effective Date and who
are not: (i) on furlough as of the Effective Date; (ii) junior to the least senior active pilot on the
Effective Date. This protection includes American Eagle pilots with American Airlines seniority
numbers when they flow up and become active employees at New American Airlines and who are
senior to the most junior active pilot on the Effective Date. The parties intend that this furlough
protection will be part of the status quo during contract negotiations pursuant to Section 6 of the
Railway Labor Act for a successor agreement to the JCBA.

The merged carriers stand to benefit from a lot of international growth.
