Looking over the new Republic TA just makes ours look worse and worse. $40/hour year one pay for FOs, duty rigs, cancellation pay, all for an airline that has according to our union the same margins Mesa operates with. What is the excuse for our TA going to be now at the roadshows. I'll have my popcorn ready.

And Republic still can't attract qualified FO's. What do you think is going to happen here if this TA is voted in and the growth stops. I think a good place to start would be the AW contract, and go from there. If they don't want to play ball then start applying to companies that are willing to pay for your qualifications. There are plenty out there that are literally dying to get you on their roster.

I don't see why the union doesn't just pull this offer, it's dead on arrival.

Best I can guess is that they knew this would go down in flames and wanted to show the company that. I'm at a point where I can't believe they're serious.

And they're gonna burn some serious union dues cheddah on hotels and gourmet food just to tide you over. So a satiated you might buy the product like a timeshare party you just signed up for. Brrraaap!

I'm right there with you on that one. I am going to attend one of the road shows just to get a good laugh. Part of me is still in denial that a few grown ass men are actually going to try and rally our people around something so hideous and embarrassing.
