Overall the summary looks good to me. Would have like more $$$, but wouldn´t we all. The MEC voted to approve this TA, not nuetral like the last. I´ll wait for the roadshow and the full language, but for now it looks like a "yes" from me.

I´m predicting 71%+ in favor.

Baja.

Currently ALK is 76 for reserves, 75 for line holders. Summary says for long call (11 hours) 75 hours, short call (2 hours) 79 hours. It didn't say but I imagine line holders will remain at 75 hours.
 
26 more furloughs and 26 more downgrades if this passes. It allows line holders to trade up to 90 hours instead of 85. Figure up to 400 do it X 5 hours. 2000 extra hours a month covered by the pilots devide by 75 hour reserve pilot equals 26.

Fellow pilots and family members,
Attached is an executive style summary of the Tentative Agreement that has now been posted
electronically on the MEC Web site and will soon be mailed out for membership review and
ratification. Although fairly lengthy and detailed, the summary is not intended to be a substitute
for the TA, but rather an expeditious and accurate means of explaining the many substantive
changes negotiated in this new agreement.
In order to get the best appreciation for the differences between our current CBA and this
Tentative Agreement, we recommend you first review the summary for an overview of the major
highlights. When you next read through the TA, please make note of any questions and reserve
those questions so that they may be addressed at our many planned roadshows and Q&A
sessions. We have been working diligently to correct any small clerical, punctuation and
grammar errors, and will continue to do so, but we wanted to get the TA out to you as quickly as
possible even if a few of these types of errors have not yet been corrected.
While this TA reflects the majority of the content you will be evaluating during the ratification
phase, we should also note that some other important issues will also be resolved as part of that
process:
An issue of major interest that is not addressed in the new agreement, but nevertheless is a very
important item, is the topic of a signing bonus or retroactive pay. As part of ratification of the
agreement, a sum of up to approximately $13,500 will be distributed to most pilots upon
approval of the TA. The methodology supporting the lump sum is based on giving full credit for
any month worked since May 1, 2007. Retired pilots’ sums were calculated at half of that
amount to reflect retroactive pay only. Further details of the distribution will be addressed and a
full explanation of the rationale behind the distribution will be covered thoroughly as part of the
road shows. Additionally, we should emphasize that this TA has an effective date of April 1​
st.
Therefore, irrespective of any ratification date, pilots’ pay will reflect the new pay rates and will
be back dated to April 1
st.
With regards to the outstanding grievances, should the agreement be approved by the
membership, it will close out a number of outstanding grievances that are addressed through new
contractual language. There would also be a renewed effort to favorably and collaboratively
resolve as many additional grievances on the books as possible. The recent grievances
concerning furloughed pilots and the implementation of Row 44 are included. In this way, we
may start a new contract with new work rules as cleanly as possible.
We would like to take the opportunity one more time to thank you for your trust, your patience,
and your support. This Tentative Agreement reflects our unwavering commitment to our four
cornerstones, and we are very pleased to be able to present this for your review
.
