I wonder if you are really a SWA pilot? I would think all SWA pilots are registered especially if you are on FI.
Maybe he should send you the article on your Company e mail to be safe.

Not all SW pilots are on Pprune. I know it's shocking. I've actually tried to sign up before but it tells me I'm not registered...which I am. Not that big of a deal.

Great thread...I hope the AIP is something most of us can agree on because I think most of you guys will really like it here. Sure the pay is great, flexibility is limitless, but the best thing is that people are happy to be here. The work environment is second to none...all work groups included.

The only downside is the "work" that comes with all this efficiency. High paying trips are "trips", not vacations. Especially if most of the work comes in a 300 in the heat of the summer...hopefully their days are numbered.

Look forward to having you guys aboard. I hope you really like it here.

By the way...open time here is awesome. If you need a little extra cash, it is almost always there. I always take a lot of time off late May to mid June off and this year coming down to the middle of the month I had 92 trips on my board. To try and "salvage" my pay for the month I signed up for open time alerts. Ended up getting 2 different 2day trips at premium time. One blocked 3+ and payed 18+, the other blocked 5 and payed just under 24. Obviously they are not always that good, but the other day I had a "turn" (day trip) that payed 11.55. Helped push an average month into a good one.

Look forward to seeing you guys on the line.

Thanks, looking forward to being part of the team.
 
It's going to take MAJOR $$$$$$$ to get that past the SWA FO side. I remain optimistic though. I've been surprised before.

Jball,
Unless you can verify and absolutely trust your source, I would chock this email up to complete and utter BS. Care to reveal your source? If it is "someone" on pprune, need I say more?

I just said it was interesting reading. That is all. yes it's from a pooner so I take it with the usual entire salt shaker! ;-)
 
If someone will PM me the details, I'll let you know if it's accurate or not from what we've been told on our forum before they yanked it.
 
Lear, why don't you wait til the SLI is released and let everyone make there own decision. Quit playing I've got a secret and let the system that was agreed upon work. If it makes you feel better because you are "in the know", then keep it to yourself. I'm sure that nondisclosure statements were a requirement for all on the negotiating teams.

All the BS that is getting spewed on this forum is out of control.. Sure everyone wants to know what the details are but I don't believe for one second that what you claim to know is any different than what everyone else claims to know. There are nothing short of ten different results on this forum alone and it changes by the hour. Tomorrow it will be something different as will the next day until the SLI is released. I suggest everyone take a step back, go have a drink or ten, play some golf or whatever floats your boat this weekend and quit getting spooled up with all the inuendo that is running rampant. Hopefully by this time next week the results will be released and all this BS that is going on now will be revealed as what it is.......RUMORS. Wait for the facts.. They will be here soon enough..
 
Was just trying to possibly help keep a bunch of people from spooling themselves up over something that may not be accurate but hey, if you want to let rumor go unchecked and get a bunch of people really P.O.'d, who am I to spoil someone's fun? :rolleyes:

Hint: it got out of control on our internal board and now a whole branch of pilots are trying to kill it before they've even seen it. Would prefer that not happen on your end, too...

Just let the cards fall where they may. Our guys (most) are patiently waiting for the deal to be finalized and then delivered. We have no information because we are not supposed to at this point. Let's keep it that way. None of us need to be sending information out adding to the already numerous rumors floating about. Some people's perception becomes their reality. Give the process a chance.

Fair 'nuff...

See you on the other side. :beer:
 
We now have been getting information on the SWA side of the house. It is coming from talking to our domicile reps. I will not put any specifics or give out any info but I would encourage all SWA guys to call or email their reps and get the info first hand. I will be voting NO after what I have learned. I was really optimistic but that has since turned sour.

Good if you are voting no then that means I am going to vote yes. Let the blood fall on the swapa side.

From the post on this board I guess the AT forum has the details of the agreement???? Can anyone post them here or can anyone send me a private email. Don't want to stir the pot...just curious. Thanks

This sounds like it could be reverse psychology. No details, and he may just want you to favor it, even if it isn't in your best interests. Remember, if you have any doubts, you can always consider doing arbitration. Godspeed!

Guys, go to prune or swapa and the problem I have is there. On Swapa forum, read under communication plan.

Watch out, it could be a fake out. Vote what your gut tells you after you read the details. If you like or dislike it, you probably aren't alone. There are other options also for you to consider too. Godspeed!
