This will be a true test to our current MECs willingness to stick their necks out for their members.
If the company doesn't play ball with the MEC, a lawsuit should be filed for violating the RLA and the CBA.
I think the company knows our MEC is weak right now, short staffed and they will take advantage.

I don't mind bouncing back to LAX every leg, but I sure as heck rather it be from IAH/YVR/YEG/SAT/DEN than SAN and SJC.

If you search AA's website for the city pairs that current AA feeders do out of LAX, but search later on this year, you'll find some more CPZ destinations...

You are posting information about a public website. You should just share the cities you've observed.

Pretty much everywhere SKW and Mesa go now give or take some variances. SLC, OKC, PHX, ELP I see on the website. I haven't searched all of the routes, but many we are confirmed going to still don't show us online yet either. Take it for what its worth.
We know we're gonna have 20 airplanes all out of LAX. SkyWest said they are dropping all they're AA 200s outta there soon, and that's only like 11 or 12 . Not sure Mesa's number of aircraft, but our 20 could theoretically cover all the AA feed flying and some additional new routes, like Mazatlan.

I was under the impression that was the plan. Eventually we would be the only Eagle feed based out of LAX.

I Hope it's a lie. Apparently it was mentioned recently at a delta connection conference in Atlanta.

The fact that the MEC is currently "short-staffed" has zero effect on an ALPA attorney's ability to file a lawsuit. That can be easily done with 1 MEC member as it can with 10.

Perhaps some of the new guys should 1)educate themselves on collective bargaining and 2)volunteer their time to improve their own and their fellow pilot's careers.
