SW offer of 44TFP a month at 143/tfp = $6300

Maybe they think SWAG points will make up for it!!

SWAG and your coworkers are so much fun. Now let’s all chip in for fuel.

The Association was not allowed to help put this together. Offer to help was rebuffed.

I liked reading the FA union response, recommending against taking this.

I hope TOTAL lack of participation from pilots encourages the company to engage with the Association to craft something suitable and detailed.

I've heard that SWAPA sent a demand letter to SWA for violating their rights as the collective bargaining agent. SWA now wants to confer with SWAPA about an ETO (yes SWA must rename everything) plan.

I've already spoken to two sheep who are thinking of taking it.
The masses here are *****es and happy to be one.

American offered something like 640 early retirements and got 622 takers. Don't know the details but I'd like to see something like that.

Gary talks about it in the second video... they haven't given early retirements any serious thoughts... go figure.

I would certainly hope that furloughs would be a desperate measure of last resort and that other alternatives like early retirements, reduced guarantee (with a snapback date and retroactivity), etc. would be explored first.
