Did you actually read how RSV's will be allowed to pick up open time? The way it has been re-invented via the Skinner blender the RSV agressive pick up is one step off impossible.

Sure it is when they are under staffed and/or cannot cover the open time. Why would they pay time and a half if they have reserves?

I didn't make myself clear. There used to be an abundant amount of open time but the company has lowered divisors, created build up lines, and increased staffing.

My logbook is up to date an applications online filled out.

I have been at two airlines that brought a union on - one regional with an in house and one major with ALPA. You are incorrect in your assertions. Are you basing them on any experience or some kind of fervent belief structure. Grow up and understand the business you are in.

Yes I am basing my on experience. You are telling me that we would negotiate from what we have now? How am I incorrect? Yea that's how it works ? That would be easy huh? Everything would be on the table. Grow up? Really? If guess you know way more than me huh?

You guessed wrong. Ask around what was promised at interviews from quick upgrades to pay rates within 2% of SWA!


So, yes. Why did you ask? Can you answer that?
