The cost to this is there won't be any ORD or DEN B737 Pilot Bases in 2012. Additionally I suspect there is some recalling possibilities coming on the LUAL side.

Just a rumor, but the MEC is meeting next week to has the T&PA out.

If any of this is true spend your profits wisely.

And please don't give the credit to "The Chairman" or Ms Wendy, your whole MECs (LUAL and LCAL) are responsible for this one. They seem to be working together a bit closer these days.

PS. I love these kind of rumors, hope it's true.

Thanx for the sage financial advice.


That's obviously pre-tax before the "30-ish%" tax grab right???

Just about every pilot that I have spoken with over the last months was confident they were gonna get paid one way, or the other (If you get my drift). Sounds like the company 'blinked', and didn't want to broach the alternative concerning the pay-out that many of the L-CO Pilot's would have sought to recoup their $$ post Feb 14th, 2012

This payout (or as Jeff would MOST likely say, "good-will') is nothing more than smoke-n-mirrors. It buys Jeff/Fred 'time' in their quest to keep dragging out the JCBA neg process. In the end, doling out L-CO Pilot's Profit Sharing is just 'small pennies' that buy large "Benjamins" for mgt in the long run.

I believe, if true, this is a good course of action for the company. If they start opening CAL bases in UAL domiciles before sli integration, it will get UGLY, IMO. Injunction or no, guys will be ****ED.

SoCal,

Not disputing the jist of your post, but my p/s check for 2010 was $6400 gross.

This would ALSO pertain to the L-UAL opening up Pilot Bases in L-CAL bases during this same TPA period.....IE IAH-Airbus.....right???.
