That’s awesome. I couldn’t remember the answers from the last call in hence the asking here. Missed the last one due to flying. I keep coming up with more and more questions, some I’ve been able to answer on my own, others I haven’t. I can’t thank the union enough for doing what they are doing. I do not envy them. It may take a while but we will get through this.

I can see that for voluntary furloughs, but for involuntary, I doubt it, it would be against AAG travel policies. D2 is only for active team members.
Voluntary furloughs are just various leaves of absences. Involuntary furloughs are a whole different animal.

This is all uncharted territory, I don't think (correct me if I am wrong) an AAG wholly owned regional has ever furloughed*

*while owned by AAG.

Much like how envoy is contractually allowed to wear leather jackets, even though nobody else at AAG is (even AA).

yell dont think it's a great thing, you pay 100 percent for it and we gave something up to have the leather.

Is spellcheck a waste of time as well? The leather jacket has been at Eaglevoy for a long time and is a product of a different era.

Could you point out the contractual reference for it please?
