Skywest and Shuttle America as UA Express for Continental...

How is this not a direct scope violation?

Will the union try to sue to block this?

 

[aa73]

WTF are you talking about?

 

[at7driver]

not sure but I believe those are flight numbers for the upcoming Jan2011 sked and who is flying them.

 

[altimaklr]

correct.

 

[sstearns2]

Skywest just announced a 100 crew domiclie in IAH flying -700s for "United" set to open early next year.

[Raoul Duke]

It is a United certificate flying, there is no scope violation

 

[Ex737Driver]

Out of a CO hub USING the code share alliance it is. If UAL is choosing to run these flights as UAL flight only, which I don't see possible since all flight UAL and CO are code share, then it would be permitted.

 

[Yuppyguppy]

Lest you forget the contract has not yet been signed. Cart before the horse move by mgmt.

 

[mamba20]

CALALPA will "investigate" this as always. . . and then. . . noting will happen AGAIN from our PU$$Y ass union.

 

[JUNK YARD DOG]

If mgmt is able to end run the CAL scope... I think you will see a big push for a recall of ALPA from the CAL side...

"Don't worry we got this"....... WTF

 

[BID]

It is a scope violation. UAL management has gotten a bit creative with this one. There will not be any scope relief from Continental pilots. Management is finally starting to see the light, no scope relief can ever be counted on. So they have, "gone long" with this move. Aggressive move in the part of UAL managers.

I hope it doesn't get ugly with SkyWest, and Shuttle America, but the flying they plan to do is in direct violation of our contract. If UAL management doesn't put an end to their plans, look for some interesting developments in the next couple of weeks.

 

[mamba20]

yeah, like the decertification of ALPA

 

[amcnd]

I thought UA and CO were merging..... You realy did'nt think they would keep a first class RJ on DEN-COS when they could put it on IAH-OMA and get 10x the first class revenue.... In the end it's going to be one big United and there going to fan out the first class RJ's into CO's old Hubs.. The very logical thing for them to do from a airline stand point..

The very logical thing for them to do from a airline stand point..

Wow profound analysis! Nevermind that little legal issue of contractual limitation that is the only good part of CAL contract '02. Hey think how awesome it would be if u replaced all UAL flown widebody flying with a contract carrier! Logical thing to do from management's perspective...

You have to realize that maybe 1% of the passengers sitting in CAL's First Class actually paid for it. The rest of them are Elite Access that stood at the gate podium demanding their upgrade.

 

[Yuppyguppy]

Yep and the teens continue to think it's their flying. Time fo UAL Mgmt. to be given and arse kicking in court.

 

[JUNK YARD DOG]

The latest!!!!

SCOPE UPDATE
This is an update on the status of management’s plan to place the CO code on United Express flights using 70-seat jets to and from CLE, EWR and IAH. As previously communicated, less than two weeks ago, we met with the Company to clearly express our objections and to formally request their contractual justification. We received their response last week, at which time we also received their request for a more complete explanation of why we believe their actions are a violation of Section 1 of the Continental CBA.

We have now provided that to the Company, along with our steadfast insistence that they confirm to us, no later than this Wednesday, Nov. 10, that they have ceased and desisted with their plans. As I have said before and I will repeat now—we are prepared to use all appropriate legal vehicles to bring resolution to this issue and ultimately prevent outsourcing in violation of our current CBA. We will provide you with additional updates as more information becomes available.

One Union. One Voice.
