They are finally announcing what's going to happen to IAH. Oh wait they did then they were wrong then back to oh I don't know.

I have heard every rumor from IAH going all E175 due to Mesa being unable to fulfill its obligations and first year pay rising to $50/hr to United Airlines buying SkyWest in as little as two weeks. They're entertaining, bahaha.

My take IAH is salvageable..(via the new AA flying) the Company still has 100 firm orders for 175's. They want to secure those before they have to pay a penalty. UA cant own a regional per there FA contract.. my guess is thery are about to raise pay.. not via a bonus. But straight up Pay. And increase the pilot profit sharing. Time will tell..

I didn't think they could just raise pay without the policy manual being renegotiated?

It's not a contract. They can, and do, literally what they want.

I can't tell you how many times CS says "oh we don't do that anymore" and sapa just says "oh yeah they don't recognize that language anymore."

What screw support does is one thing but changing the policy manual is another. Per the courts eye it is legally binding, and I wouldn't think they'd just do it without a vote.

Have you read any TRs from the past year?

Did you vote on any of them?

Case closed.

Is relocation incentives from a base that is closing part of the PPM? So even if the PPM is legal binding, who is going to take SGU to court if they decide to raise pay without a vote?

It used to be that just CS would just do whatever because there was no repercussion when they would violate the "rules". That mindset has now spread to all floors at meca. Anyone that thinks SGU won't do whatever, whenever obviously hasn't been paying attention over the past couple years. Any vote that would take place is after the negotiation has already been done. And by negotiation, I mean SGU telling SAPA what's going to happen and SAPA selling it to the pilot group.
