AirTran pilots, it's time to vote!

I don't care yes or no. We need to show the company and the NPA that we still have a voice in the direction of our union.

Just voted. What's everyone think about the chances of it passing? I haven't been flying much lately, so I don't know what people are saying out on the line.

No one seems to know about it on the line. After 4 days I found only 2 that knew a vote was coming, and not one person that that had an opinion about even IF they were going to vote.

Since over 200 didn't even vote on the TA's, I predict less than 40% turn out for this one. This vote is going to demonstrate a very anemic pilot group. More fodder for management being served up shortly. Sorry, the glass is way more than half empty from where I sit.

What, does no one even have email? The NPA has sent a few different email updates about this thing. Guess the union better start getting everyone to update their contact info.

You're probably right about turnout, though. Getting 50% to even vote in rep elections is tough enough. Something like this probably will go unnoticed by most of the pilot group.

What are you guys voting on?

Change to the C & BLs that would require a membership vote for LOAs.

I can see that your union has some problems comunicating with its membership, if they don't know a concessionary T/A vote is out. That is a serious problem. No wonder you want ALPA.

Concessionary TA vote? Huh? It's a bylaws change, not a TA vote.

But yes, we do need ALPA.

I see. I misunderstood your previous post.
