Who wants to take AA? DAL has 7+ flights daily and guess what, they aren't on an RJ.

How did this loa affect you? What benefit to the company do you see and how would you like it to look? Just wondering...

It's a benefit to the company because current book language states the following...

"Except for irregular operations, a crewmember will not be required to drive or be driven in excess of thirty (30) miles."

There's nothing irregular about scheduled maintenance. Hence the LOA because I would assume people were stating this section of the CBA and not wanting to sit in the back of a 20 year old taxi for 2 hours. Except now, they have to.

Also, if you don't see an issue with creating new LOA's at this point during negotiations, you need to think a little bit more. Clearly that's something the company wants/needs and is a bargaining chip that should have been held on to.
