Just trying to see how/why this would be possible. Seems to me if I was responsible to the shareholders, I wouldn't be in a rush to give pay and work rule improvements if I didn't have to.

How often are gains given inside of the amendable date? Seriously, curious, I have no clue how this works.

That said, I am all for early improvements!
Why would the company give us contractual improvements and stock in order to complete the merger? Neither the DAL or NWA contract prevented them from completing the merger and never talking to us? The answer is that it was in their financial interest to do it. Our contract can be changed through mutual consent at any time, the amendable date is just a marker for the Railway Labor Act and what actions the NMB can take to facilitate a deal, there is no impediment to making contractual gains before that date.

The key will be to, once again, convince the company it is in their best interests to complete a deal quickly. Happy pilots make for a happy company that makes money, unhappy pilots, not so much. I am not saying that it will happen or even if the MEC will decide they want to do that. That is their choice.

Oh, if I haven't mentioned it lately, the gains we made in the merger were the first time ever this happened in the history of aviation. Just wanted to make Carl's head spin around again.

Yep, it's FUBAR for me too, says my account is revoked. This is unacceptable; I pay $50 a year for this and I couldn't list for a flight in the morning if I wanted to, or even check loads.

Numerous memos are out stating it is going down intermittently due to high demands on the system. (might be more down than up)

When everyone no longer needs it (and demands decrease) it will start working again.

Happy new year, one and all. As a former military (vice regional) guy, reading this forum is bringing me up to speed on whole host of issues I didn't care about while I was working for Uncle Sugar.

A very happy new year to all you APC Delta folks. While I was flying over Christmas, I did avoid the bulk of the IROP. Kudos to those of you that endured. May this be a very blessed and prosperous year for all of us.
