Default Quiet week eh?

What day do you think we will get the AIP has been reached? I'm thinking sometime next week? Do you think the board is being briefed on most of the sections now? So when they get called back it will just be a day or so meeting before sending it out as a TA? Wondering if there is a push by SWA to have this signed before the end of the year? Is there any benefit to anyone for getting this done by January?

IMO it will be after the 8th when the FA’s vote closes. I have heard a lot of them say they are waiting to vote to see what we get. SWA probably doesn’t want them to see how good we got it (not that it matters, two different jobs)

If they get industry leading pay, I think they should have to do industry leading work. Like serving meals. Premium cabin service. Hot towels. You name it. I can’t fathom how a United FA who provides white glove service, hot meals on china, ice cream sundaes, pre-departure beverages, etc to their business class passengers earns less than ours.

Take a look at some of our Reps' boards and you'll start to see UNP green bars the week of the 17th...could that be when they are planning the roadshows?

let's start with baby steps. WN flight attendants are to lazy to even get up and serve a coke. Over 4000 flights a day and all are to bumpy to do a service . They need to ghost ride for a month and then fire 1000-2000. fAs. That would get them moving.

Agreed. Emails and talks during recurrent will not do the job with that crowd. They will need to be forced. Selective firing would do this airline a world of good and I’m sure would greatly encourage our good FAs.
