As part of the new contract amendment JetBlue has agreed to establish a $2 million dollar fund for the pilot group to use in any seniority integration that might arise.

Additional contract language also requires any acquiring entity to agree to comply with Allegheny-Mohawk for seniority list integration along with a significant list of other restrictions.
 
Big deal. The law requires that any carrier acquiring a non-Union outfit use Allegheney-Mohawk.
 
Does this mean the union drive is over?

Only those pilots that ratify this latest amendment are able to "use" the $2 million, right? Plus there is no mention of "how" and exactly "why" in the amendment either.
 
Read it carefully. It actually says that in the event of an actionable event (I don't make this crap up) the company will establish a merger fund from which the pilot group may draw in the amount of 2 million dollars. So only when someone is going to buy/merge/acquire substantially all of our assets will the fund be established. Do you really think the acquiring entity, who will unduobtedly be holding the purse strings at that point, will allow $2 mil in equity to be disbursed to fight the acquisition?
