The following is the text of an ASAP report I submitted yesteray.
Background:
As per our concessionary contract our crew rest seat on the 757/767 is now three coach seats. However we are to get a Business First seat before any other non full fare B/F upgrade or any other non-rev. Approximately 85% of the time the crew rest seat in the 757/767 is in B/F.
Several months ago one of our Captains was intially harshly disciplined with significant time off for moving a VP out of B/F. After our pilots raised $10,000 in less than twenty four hours on our forum (www.Calforums.com) the company backed down and reduced the discipline significantly.
On the B737 we do long international turns over eight hours with an IRO. Our contract doesn't address crew rest seats however our FOM states the crew rest seat on the 737 is to be 1B or 1E .
Al, Larry and Kate (EWR CALALPA LEC OFFICERS),
I am forwarding you the text of an ASAP report I filed over improper 737 crew rest seat assignment and intimidation by SOCC to take a coach class seat for crew rest. I am also forwarding this e-mail to the EWR CPO due to the numerous and significant operational problems that occurred on this trip.
