ASA/SkyWest in ATL

[MarineGrunt]

How is the ALPA drive progressing at skywest?

It's been pretty quiet. I've been on mil leave since the pay deal passed, so I don't know what the fallout is from that...

Saw one taxi in yesterday at ATL. Ramp had it hold on the ramp. and then it finally parked at it's gate about 10 minutes later. Welcome to ATL!

10 min? Big deal. The penalty box in ORD is sometimes over an hour.

Guys and gals......knock off the name calling now please.

Just wait. ATL can top that. Not a cloud in the sky 2 weeks ago and we arrived 5 mins early. But we sat and waited 1 hour and 6 mins for a gate. No weather no nothing. Just no gates!

ALPA wants a high majority of the pilot group to send in cards before they will petition for a vote, right now they don't have enough votes to even legally petition for a vote.

Per the rumor mill, and that's never wrong.

Just like ORD. This is nothing new.

Actually it is 6% more this year...with 1% increases every year until 2010.
If you're going to post at least look at the big picture.

By the way ASARJMAN...what is ASAs policy on deadhead pay?
cancellation? Maintenance? Profit sharing? J/W

As far as ALPA goes we are getting way too many people from TSA, Mesa, Mesaba, Eagle, ASA, Pinnacle, etc.

We all have had horrible experiences with ALPA...hasn't been a whole lot of support lately. Just a few people that have no experience dealing with a union who think it is the answer to everything.

Deadhead pay is paid at 100%. (They tried to negotiate 50%, saying they needed that so they could deadhead us less.......rrrrrrightttttttt)......CNX paid @100% on a leg per leg basis. Maint, same thing, 100% leg per leg. No profit sharing. Junior man is paid @ 150%. Hope that helps.

There's your answer, 100% on all of what you mentioned. No profit sharing. We also get 100% pay for vacation lost block, sick time, check rides, scheduling screw-ups as long as it's on our final schedules. That about answer it for ya? Good.
