I heard the pilot group never seriously courted ALPA in the first place, for some reason.

Curious who told you that. Obviously not someone who worked here during the previous ALPA drive in 2009. We chose a pay raise buy off instead and left ALPA holding the bag. Not surprised they didn't have time for us.

Tough times making up things in the age of the internet anymore.

Interesting, I was told by a 2012 hire. There's nothing more unions like to do than to expand their membership. Even with what you explained, I can't see why ALPA would look the other way a second time around. If that's what happened than it's ALPA's loss.

I heard a big reason is there was a lot of deep-seeded anti-ALPA sentiment among the Midex/TWA guys.

Thanks in advance for any info.
Teamcare MM200 plan is the single option. At least it's purported to be a pretty good plan..

$177.30
$281.87
$394.87

Annual increases to the total contribution rates shall be limited to 0% in the first Plan Year, 5% in the second Plan Year, and 7% every year thereafter for the term of the agreement.

At the time, multiple unions were approached. ALPA told us they were too busy with jetBlue and the TWA judgement against them. Try back in 2 years.
