APA and the Delta TA
This is going to make for an interesting contrast to the Delta TA
APA INFORMATION HOTLINE
This is APA Communications Committee Chairman First Officer Tom Hoban with the APA Information Hotline for Wednesday, June 20.
APA BOARD REJECTS MANAGEMENT'S OFFER: By a vote of 11 to five, the APA Board of Directors decided this afternoon not to approve management’s “final offer” as a tentative agreement, which means it will not be submitted to the membership for a ratification vote.
The motion the Board voted against reads as follows: Motion to waive applicable policy and adopt the Company’s last, best, and final offer, dated 6/20/12 and time-stamped 1550 CDT, and upon adoption as required by Article XII, Paragraph D of the C&B, this document will be the Board-approved Tentative Agreement.
In explaining their opposition to approving the offer as a tentative agreement, a number of Board members cited the lack of specificity in various areas and the need for additional time to properly analyze various contractual provisions and related language.
The bankruptcy judge is expected to issue a ruling on Friday regarding management’s motion to reject our collective bargaining agreement.
That’s it for now. Thanks for checking this hotline.

There is a lot going on behind the scenes here. Scope is rumored to be no more than 76 seat jets. Of course the deal is not final, but they have been working hard on this.

This deal was worked out with Judge Peck in the room. He was not completely one sided, but you could see that he was leaning towards the company.

I don't get warm fuzzies about APA's upcoming scope. I think it'll make ours look good.

Bankruptcy judges can't abrogate scope, so if there is a ruling on Friday it will be motion denied till the scope relief is taken out.
