take things literally much? I should say our contract is better than PSAs. How's that cxld vacation, hold to mainline and pay caps working out for you? What's your healthcare at now? 28% capped at 33%? Ours is 16% capped at 18%.
Are you willing to give those things up for new company revenue generating equipment?

Did the meetings end? Getting new jets or did they pull the plug?

yeah they ended, just as expected, with nothing, all the idiots fell for airways ploy of getting everyone (especially eagle) all worked up

they had no intention of offering us jets, they're just stringing us along to try to keep us calm, and then get everyone else riled up to get them back to the table...

suckers

Default Status Quo

Meeting was to schedule another meeting, status quo! Nothing new. NO 175s, NO CRJ-700, NO Q-400, NO FLOW, NO Merge. Our meetings with management are like when a dog chases it's tail. It's freaking hilarious. They go nowhere.... That's PDT.

How sure are you? It would be very foolish of the Piedmont MEC to discuss anything that was said at this point. Taking a page out of successful MECs playbooks vs repeating the failings of recent past at Envoy. Loose lips sink ships... As basic as that saying is, it is very true.

Nobody really believes that our MEC is trying to hide something. If there was more going on behind the scenes, I think that would have been implied in the email. I think our MEC REALLY wants some good news out there, but unfortunately for now, it's status quo. Based on the email we received, it appears as though not very much happened at the meeting. I could be wrong though.

I still can't figure out how you think the Envoy MEC failed. They did exactly what we told them to, that's their job.
