Wow,
If that is true. That's a pretty crappy thing to do. Especially while going through your own negotiating process your self. I don't like to see bad things happen to people. But, in this instance it may be more of "karma is a bitch".
Man, I'd love to agree with you. But, certification of new pilots has returned to a normal level. The big three are hiring at a snails pace and controlling capacity well. The only llc that is growing quickly is spirit.
I just don't see it happening.
Unfortunately, with the shrinking of the regional fleets, I see no shortage in sight anytime soon. Yes there will be movement. But nowhere near a shortage level, especialy at the major level. Even the "B" level majors like virgin, JetBlue and allegiant won't ever have a shortage of resumes to...
Ok, fair enough reading how I phrased my question I can see how it could be misinterpreted.
I agree that the only way we will change the current structure is by organizing. And I don't think there is too many people that think a union is anything but inevitable here. Really the question...
Are you really trying to pick an argument over a statement that was obviously not hostile? I was just stating the truth of our current situation. Calm down Francis.
Good luck to you all. Stay unified, stay strong. You'll need each other's support no matter which way this goes.
I have confidence in 25 days you'll be working on your first cba.
Unfortunately here at VX we don't get the choice. We are benchmarked against all narrow body drivers including frontier, allegiant and spirit, which for the most part have lower hourly than we do. What sucks even more is they only compare straight hourly pay. No work rule enhancements. So even...
Well, in all fairness. In +\-4 years or so years they may have a contract that will do this. For now it will be status quoe. I just hope they don't fall for the old "well it's our first contract, that's the best we r gonna get" routine.
My personal favorite Spirit billboard was when VX launched FLL service a few years ago.
"They might be Virgin. But, we've been cheap and easy for years!"
It's just a schtik man. Breath.
Wait a sec.
The whole training department is shut down?!?!
According to my neighbor in las, G4 FO, almost every of is looking for a different position in greener pastures. Is this true? How will allegiant function? Half chartered schedule? Is that even logistically possible?
Based on your response and profile I'm glad I never have to fly with your petty, childish self. Seriously, what the hell is wrong with people? I have been at VX for 4 years.
To the rest of the responses, thank you. Very intresting. I feel for your frustrations. It's hard watching your hard...
Just looking for an inside track on why this stuff still happens at JetBlue. I know everyone took some delays and cancelations out of the north east but Blue seemed to get hit the worst. After that valentines day thing from several years ago didn't the company invest in a better IROPS program...
Could I ask a clarifying question?
I have heard that premium pay was taken away in the new pea. Yet I have seen other reports saying it was returned to the agreement after the original release.
Which way is it?
