Only once it is settled will they provide anything. Until then only those party to the proceedings have access.

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

I think that’s why this thread was started in the first place, referring back to the title. The waters around this issue are so beyond muddy now, it’s morphed into something far outside the scope of the original grievance. What role did Jazz management play in preventing pilots from flowing in orde...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

How is it that some believe that a CBA grievance and an interference complaint has morphed in to a common employer petition? If somebody wants to argue CE, then they have to file it. And trust me, the process will be one a lot more complicated than mediation followed by an order. Jazz pilots want t...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

In wich scenario someone already on AC property would go fly an RJ ? If one list os formed and the Jazz guys are BOTL. Jazz needs captains; if someone from AC hired last week would then be senior to all Jazz pilots... so if they bid down to an RJ to fill a left seat, they would effectively be senio...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

If Jazz pilots have a strong common employer case, DOH would be a logical ask. Logical to ask for sure, very unlikely outcome. Guaranteed if common employer is being explored it will be an arbitrated list and based on some formula the arbitrator comes up with. For me, I have absolutely zero desire ...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

I have heard that there is scheduling conflicts on the 18th and the meeting may not be taking place. (Rumour) Jazz MEC is trying to muddy the waters and get DOH for every jazz pilot on AC's seniority list. It isn't mudding the waters if it has legal backing. Remeber, AC directly interfered in our n...

Yes they got it. They were told by the CIRB to get it from what I understand when they attempted to just walk away/were told to leave, because a decision could likely impact them and they should be at the table.

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

There is no vote. The CIRB may ask for an opinion but will never ask for permission. The CIRB will issue an ‘order’. It is not subject to appeal. It is however subject to judicial review (reasonableness = no serious error and fair). And this is the risk of not coming to a negotiated settlement.... ...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

Look, I’m not saying you don’t have a reason to be upset, but you need to keep expectations grounded in reality. I suspect a one time cash payout that will be put to vote for the 285 affected, that the company will have calculated to get a 51% passing vote. That’s what’s likely to happen, and unfor...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

I think rudder just summed it up nicely. As much as it might anger some, upsetting 285 Jazz pilots is the the likely outcome over reordering a 5400 pilot seniority list, to include pilots who aren't even on property. It just doesn't make sense. How about this as a solution... all impacted 285 Jazz ...

I have no dog in this fight and I feel for the Jazz guys who weren't given what they were supposed to. However, this discussion reminds me of the discussions from a couple decades ago when I was at Jazz. Guys thought they were going to get some seniority or big payout from the Barry vs Pulley lawsu...

Re: Does anyone know what the MEC is actually trying to get out of the ULP?

Do you understand what you’re saying? That would never work. What about someone who left Jazz and went to Porter? Does AC have to call him and offer him a job? What about everyone that’s been hired at AC since then? You can’t modify their seniority, or kick them out of their seats. The CIRB knows t...

Hopefully they resolve it soon. What does the union consider to be a “fair” cash settlement? How much are we talking here?

ACA ALPA isnt the one definding our interest, JZA ALPA is... I actually spent time talking with those involved and you are right, ACA ALPA is defending the whole roster, not only the 285. Last I heard it needs to be a 4 party solution and I can’t see these groups agreeing to a lunch order. Likely a...

The fact that they tried to walk out several times and were told no, means they already lost. We might just not find the result as satisfying as we might like it to be.

Re: Grievance update for the 285ish former Jazz pilots affected by Flow

Would be a pretty big relief if intervener status is denied. It would indicate that there’s nothing relevant to the AC pilots being discussed. If there was, intervener status must be granted. The AC MEC presented this a few weeks ago, it’s pretty black and white. Why would it be a relief? And for w...
