Is this true? Does ALPA put pressure on it’s negotiators to give just a little in the final stages so they don’t have to hand out any strike funds? I hope this isn’t true but money talks.

This deal better have some kind of junior man protection or I’m signing nothing anyway.

I think the pressure was on Pinnacle because of the new NMB and a possible strike for all their stalling. I'm just worried that parts of the TA were agreed on a long time ago. Times have changed. Back then, ready reserve wasn't abused. Now it is, I hope there is some real protection to stop reserves from being abused. I'm glad for good scope protection, but there has to be quality of life improvements also. Of course, all this talk is for nothing until we see the actual TA and stop worrying over contract rumors.

Isn't that the point of reserves though??

You will be able to refuse JA similar to how we can refuse extensions now.

Reserves are to cover the flying, but they certainly don't have to be abused. There is nothing pretty about sitting at the airport for 9 hours 3 days in a row.
