I think most people looked at those surveys to be a BS way of being singled out for supporting ALPA and not taking part it in, hence the low participation rate.
Besides, the time for surveys was last year.

Nope... The only acceptable resposnes were APA or ALPA with a statement of go read the provided information to make a decision. I read the info and didn't come away with a impression that I had enough info to say that I think one is better than the other... I'm not an APA fan boy, but I don't think that the grass is necessarily greener at ALPA...

Interesting. How many terms did the PHL guy serve?
Which term was he on when he was late for the ALPA meeting on a premium trip that just happened to have DHs to and from BOS(where he isn't based) but also to and from multiple airports.
Something like:
DH BOS-PHL RON
operate PHL-DFW Land just in time for meeting(but also be late)
DH DFW-BOS
Such luck!

APA is kind of like our US Government. Term limits on Senator's and Congressmen would greatly benefit our nation however you have to get said Congress to basically vote themselves out of a job so it will never happen.
APA will never support joining ALPA because it puts a lot of APA employees out of a job. Not really the pilot groups problem but that’s just the reality of the situation. Don’t need an APA benefits department when ALPA already has one, the same can be said about most APA departments.

Card drive is another story altogether.
