Wasn't it a paycut or pretty close to even money for one to go from bid -700 FO to reserve -200 captain?
 
Nice job AQ pilots! I'm with Hawaiian and I hope our negoitiaters can do as well with our upcoming negoitiations.
Thought I saw somewere you were having settlement talks with Mesa or something. You guys hear anything about that?

Yeah I read that's why the trial was postponed until the fall now.

Who knows... but I did hear that Aloha has a much stronger case than Hawaiian did. We'll see.
 
I heard that they're going to interview again next month. May be more planes coming our way? Expansion?
 
Didn't think the pool was big enough for another class. Must be interviewing really soon if the 3/31 class is correct?
 
I keep hearing that we're trying to get a couple more 800s by this summer. May be that explains why!
 
We should start the 'big announcement pool.'

Everyone should chip in $5 to the pool to guess the closest date to the big announcement.

Big announcement is defined as a truly big announcement, i.e. fleet growth (at least 2 or more additional ETOPS planes), merger, buyout, new cities (yes, it'd be a big announcement at Aloha) etc. Aloha going cashless on ETOPS flights, or Banmiller saving 15% on GEICO is not considered a big announcement.

Basically, everyone chips in $5 per year to play. So if you think there's gonna be a big announcement on March 16, you buy in at $5. Christmas 2008, $5. If you think there are 2 big announcements, it's $5 per date. Those date picks are good only until New Years Eve. If you want to keep playing, then you make another $5 entry for say 2009. The closest bid to the actual big announcement date wins.

Someone would make some serious cash!

Management, non-represented employees and MEC/Negotiations Committee would be ineligible to play.

Why not make it fun? It's getting lame hearing the rumors of the big announcement.
 
Apparently, we are still interviewing for another class either in April or also on 31st March. Got that at Scheduling today.
