The management at Republic is very good at spreading rumors. I’ve been around for 10 years, and have heard BB say many things. Normally they are not truthful, but We all fall for it. They're not having trouble attracting applicants, so why would they just throw money away? I suspect in the end it will be a retention type bonus, and heavily slanted towards junior FOs. I will come back to this post in July, and see if you’re still a true believer.

BTW,
I would still say Republic is a good place to go for some people. Depends on what priorities they have I suppose. Certainly not last choice, but not industry leading either.

So you don’t believe we should learn from history? Looks like you’ve been on property for less than a year, so you really have no idea what’s going on here. I get they have treated you very nice, but maybe that’s because they need you to fill a seat. If Republic doesn’t have a contract by this time next year, who would you blame? Educate yourself on the the past history of RAH, because as long as BB is around, it will repeat.

I wasn’t at RAH when the last contract was negotiated or TAed. I can tell you they started a alter ego airline to pressure ratification of a substandard CBA. I can tell you that they furloughed pilots out of seniority order. The FO rates were horriable! Even with a CBA that was very much beneficial to management, they still constantly violated it. Sounds like you haven’t really researched the history of your company. Hope it doesn’t come back to bite you in the future.

Yeah Bedford sucks but it’s time to pay up or shutdown. It’s that simple.
I’ll stress again that the frequency of the meetings between the committee and company should be noted as a positive sign. They are even meeting over this weekend. Seems strange to be talking so urgently for a contract that, according to some people, is years away.

Or we could just wait for the update next week like the union e-mail said. They are clearly trying to roll something out, meeting on a Holiday week and weekend, and telling us there will be an update from the NC and E-Board the first week of a new year...

That sounds like a plan. Oh and they didn’t say they were meeting this weekend, they said if they continue with positive results they will work over the weekend. Did you talk to NC and they’re meeting this weekend now? I really hope it’s true, because I see a lot of shattered dreams if we don’t get a TA very soon. Probably need to give a class on expectation management.
