AirTran 737 Captains voting "NO"

[Hose A. Jiminez]

I'm hearing that the majority of the "NO" voters are the 737 captains. These guys are likely to be integrated regardless of what happens in my opinion, so I suppose they don't have much to lose. However, they are basically wagering the other 66% of their pilot groups careers (717 guys) against the chance for a 50% pay raise, and a captain spot three years earlier. I want a captain spot as much as the next guy, but not at the expense of 1000 of my buddies jobs.

It will pass by 90%.....that is my prediction.

Another Statement to stir the pot where do u get this shi!t? I'm a737 Fo and haven't flown with one no voter yet.

Go back south of the border dude, you know not of what you speak.

I just commuted home from MDW on a 737 and both CA and FO were staunch YES voters and wanted to hang the angry 7 for what it is worth.

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

The angrey 7 can't even fly the line. That Shows u how piss off we are, They will be gone after the 11. Well three of the 7 will.

Good to hear. I got it from a guy on another forum. He's sort of a pot stirrer so I shouldn't have given it much thought. let's get this done and move forward.

Why would their vote be determined by what they are currently flying? That has nothing to do with where they will end up.

Again, utter BS. Some people really have no life.

Except that no AirTran guy can be a 737 CA til after Jan 2015.

Then you haven't flown with me yet! I was realistic back at the start and didn't want to overreach, but this deal is an embarrasement. Its truly sad to work with such a spineless group!!!

Even more pathetic is that there are probably SWA guys that think this deal is unfair to them and will vote no.

 

[RIDETHELIGHTING]

Nice, another one of the 12 angry men.

You bet your a$$ there are SWA guys that think this deal is unfair and you bet your a$$ I just voted NO. I cant wait to hear your ALPA talking points on how any of this BS sandwich is fair to any SWA guy.

Tell me what we got out of this deal ?? and please dont tell me ATL....I dont give a rats a$$ about ATL.

We acquired you, gave you a big pay raise, better everything and what do we get from you.......a loud typical ALPA NO we want more, we deserve more, we are entitled to more, we demand more........until the big smack down.

You fools are lucky to be here, dont forget during the Frontier deal you guys were begging for a staple now look at you. ALPA sold you down the river and cost you a bunch of $$$$$$$ and if your not careful it could be a bunch of jobs too.......good work ALPA.......you suck

To all the citrus guys and gals .......please vote NO

Man, you are one unhappy chick . . . . . I doubt it has much to do with this merger . . . it's just the way you are put together.

Must suck to be you. :crying:

Not true Ty......we had a great deal going until this ******************** sandwich was forced on all of us, you guys won big we get nothing and you demand more. You guys would not be happy if we were stapled to the bottom of your list. ALPA guys can never be happy, that is the ALPA deal, keep the group riled up tell them the deserve more tell them SWA owes you more and the bitching list goes on for ever.

You guys were acquired, and saved from your own rotten existence but before you get here you want us all to take a major hit all the way around because we should be so thankful that you are coming on board.

We all paid major dues to get on with this company, and you guys had it all handed to you and look at you .......still not happy or thankful, just greedy and unhappy. We here at SWA worked hard to make this company what it is and you guys want a major piece of it for just showing up. GMAFB.

The power of the ALPA koolaid is stunning, its going to take a long time to for the effects of it to wear off and in some cases is will never wear off.

You guys will be malcontents over here forever, I just hope you all stay in ATL or FL forever.

Please vote NO
