We want money. Just pay us. How come we don't get polled to ask us how much we want? 2019 was last poll. We want higher rates than AA and DAL and SWA. It's not that hard.
If a guppy CA at SW can make 440K a year, our WB guys are getting hosed. Our wide body pilots should make 100K more a year than a narrow body guppy pilot at an LCC.
HELLO! NC. Please read this!

Supposedly ALPA conducts certification votes by secret ballot. The ballots are tallied and certified by a third party at the closing date.
It would be troubling to learn that the votes were being watched by ALPA (not to mention being in violation of bylaws and maybe labor law).
Maybe equally troubling is that the MEC suspended the TA based on negative feedback. When have we ever had an agreement that hasn’t had received overwhelming negative feedback?
This totally stinks.

The TA itself has NOT been suspended at this point. Let's stop spreading misinformation. The Town Halls/road show has been put on hold, while the MEC has an emergency meeting ..... 5 days from now 😂 (can't interrupt the holiday weekend)
In the meantime the TA is still the TA. Get out and vote.
