Yes they can. The language states no layoffs through 9/30/2020

Yes they will but there are stipulations in the stimulus bill that require certain things. I fully expect to be on the street a second time on 10/1/2020

-New monthly minimum guarantee is 66 or 70 hours, this is dependent upon the percentage of schedule reductions from the code share partners for the months of April, May and June.

VLO with 10 hours pay? Really?!?
Who comes up with this $hit?

Monthly guarantee of 66 to 70 hours? Our contract clearly states 76 hours!!!

Is that all you've got?

​​​​​Why do we even have such a useless weak Union?

Looks like crap to me. One of the weakest part of our contract is reserve. Where is the relief for those on reserve? We have always had the worst reserve rules. Relaxing reserve rules would be a no brainer for negotiators when negotiating a MOU reduction of min gar. We are going to be so fat on reserves it would be a rational concession for the company, but where is it?

What exactly makes our reserve rules the “worst”? Be specific.

You get paid at the rate that you do every day because you are essential. If you want hazard pay for when things are actually hazardous, then you would get pay cuts when things are not.

Im sorry to say this, but you must have never worked hard in your life, or had a job that really sucks and requires a lot of energy and brain power. If you aren’t happy here as an airline pilot working a dream job of millions of people then that’s just sad honestly. Be grateful that you have a job, be grateful that you make a living and people look up to you. I have worked some of the hardest labor jobs, this is nothing to complain about.

The same mentality that led RJ pilots to be so fxxxxxg under pay for the last 30 years!

You are either a troll or a naive new hire, but if you want me to be specific “troll”
