Sad. Never has a concessionary contract and give backs saved an airline and we are the only instrument management needs to screw us. Pitiful. I feel sorry for Frontier's pilots, but this not going to keep anyone employed any longer.
 
We already knew the Frontier pilots will vote for ANY paycut. Management knows this too. They will come back for more. They will keep coming back for more until Frontier pays what a regional pays.
 
Yeah Airtran needs ALPA because ALPA is really going to help a 1,500 pilot group vs the majors.

They all Suck!!
 
Don't worry - usair pulled the same "we're liquidating" stunt and it sure turned out fine for their pilots.
 
If I understand correctly, after the BK filing, F9 pilots took a 14.5% paycut. This new, longer term agreement gives them back 4.5% of that now, and the rest comes back over time.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong...
 
USAir went bankrupt two times in three years.

Yes; their pilots now make about half what they used to, they lost their pension, and they labor under BK-style work rules.

And their costs are still the highest in the industry and they appear headed for another BK.

Pay cuts don't work.
 
F9 conveniently posted a 2.9 million dollar profit for the month of Dec. and 2.5 mil. operating profit. What a crock.
