The Delta vote

[nimtz]

A DAL+1 for you guys would be a 40% raise, and all of the work rules changes would add BILLIONS. Yeah, I hope that happens..... Good luck.


Bye Bye---General Lee

Already got offered old DAL+1 two years ago. Never went past section 1 despite the pay and work rule gains. Somehow BOHICA on scope didn't seem like a good idea. Oh and also the fact that legacy airlines were posting profits during the great recession. Guess I should of said take it to 'help' DAL ALPA's efforts. Congrats on your hard fought victory!

In a couple years he will have had a 16% raise by then, with 3% more coming in the following January. He/she may also have upgraded finally to a 717 or bigger, increasing pay even more.


Good luck on your negotiations.

You're the sell out for even flying an RJ in the first place. Can you say HYPOCRITE. You have absolutely no credibility, PERIOD........

WHat? let me guess that you went right from the military to mainline? You are an idiot to think that anyone that does not have a military background has any other choice. If It were up to me, I would have went right from the Saab right seat, to the left and then on to mainline. But some how, whether it was greedy scope relief for pay or bankruptcy scope relief I am stuck at a regional flying lets. You have no credibility by making such a statement. It also shows you are an idiot with a silver spoon in your mouth.

Don't call me a sell out when it is not my or anyone else's fault who is flying an RJ, that we are flying said RJ's.

So it's my fault I guess.. Let me see... I guess I should have quit while I was on furlough for 5 years, since I couldn't vote. That would have shown them! You guys keep up the generalizations and grandstanding.. Your level of annoyance makes me want to change my vote to a yes just to see if I can annoy you more.

Have a nice day.

CAL/UAL has been an absolute joke with regards to this merger. 50 seat only scope is for people who don't know how to be realistic. BTW I see 70 seaters in EWR and IAH. LOL nice scope win ALPA

Our CEO wants your scope relief, he has offered Delta plus one before. I will never vote for anything that allows it. I just can't imagine voting yes on a 90 seat airframe. Then again, we are ALPA. I would not be surprised if we too see a future sales job.

BTW, are you not at all concerned Delta management might one day try to negotiate more seats on the 90 seaters airframes? Hey, more revenue for Delta! What's another four more seats anyway?

Of course he will offer you DL +1, but have you taken he time to see how much of a jump that would be in pay, benefits, and rules? Huge. It would be great, but it would be the greatest jump up in history. We have struggled to do it over a couple negotiations. I would like to see him put it in writing, and if he does, great. Speaking of CEOs, Parker, too, will offer that to anyone who will try to merge with him. I hope they get it also.

And according to ALPA, the company wanted 82 seats throughout the whole TA negotiation. It was a solid No, and that lasted through the last day.

I didn't fly it in the first place. I flew it in the 4th place, after furlough, after I'd had plenty of TPIC 121 time- glad to know those who had a vote still on the property were so willing to outsource my job-

Spin that however you want, but my job was outsourced and I flew right seat in an RJ on my old mainline routes bc my widebody peers didn't think my job, mortgage, or benefits was important.

The BK gun to the head was the excuse. "we had no choice!"
Now you do.
(And it's not personal- this happened to THOUSANDS of us.)

Yea, because a couple more coach seats will make delta a tremendous amount of money VS those first class seats it's configured with and if they let the 900s have 86 coach seats instead of 76 mixed class the company would begin replacing 757s with RJs..
