Re: AC Hiring
Jazz pilots worked for those seniority numbers and deserve them. you are not owed anything. the sense of entitlement from the jazz boys is insane. I've met many candidates with the same mentality. Luckily the AC hiring department has been weeding most of them out lately, since they have a surplus o...

Re: AC Hiring
How quickly flow gets discredited in our contract, it has the same weight as anything else in the contract. The violation needs to be rectified by the parties named. Jazz pilots worked for those seniority numbers and deserve them. No matter what you think you "deserve," you won't be getting a senio...

Re: AC Hiring
In response to what Rudder opined on a reserved seniority number for a held back Jazz pilot, I would suggest that this is a no go at this time. It is my belief, talking with those that I fly with and converse with, that there is little appetite from AC pilots to entertain the idea of reserved senio...

Re: AC Jetz
The flying actually isn’t that good. 5-6 day pairings, mostly all red eye flying, credit isn’t the best. You visit secondary airports in a lot of cities, pro or con depending on how you look at it. Pros are long layovers in some different cities, perks like getting to attend games and meet cool peop...

Re: Negotiations
Correct me if I’m wrong but did you not go over on pml 1.0 signed in 2015 with some type of Jazz seniority number ahead of OTS for two years? If that’s you, imagine had we agreed to that pml with a reserved number but AC didn’t honour it, what would you have done, sucked it up and moved on? You see...

Re: Negotiations
On an individual basis, no it was not a guarantee, promise or right however as a group, 60% of new hires with a MAXIMUM 10% turndown rate is as guaranteed as you can get. I’d love those odds for the lottery! I still don't think Jazz is going to offer any sort of compensation. What is the goal with ...

Re: Negotiations
The flow program was never a promise, guarantee or right, just an opportunity that a given percentage would have access too as an employee of Jazz. When a Jazz pilot migrated to AC seniority was determined by lottery during the PIT course. I'm aware of a pilot who was interviewed, hired but due to ...

Re: YUL pairings 787
YUL B787 FO pairings range from 1-5 days, with 70% in the 3-4 day range. RP pairings are 3-5 days in length, with slightly more than half being 4 days. The vast majority are 2 legs per pairing. There is some off-base flying (especially on reserve), but there seem to be a lot more cases of YYZ pilot...

Re: Negotiations
Who controls the seniority list at AC? AC or ACPA? Pretty sure ACPA does and since they aren't signatories of the agreement any dream of getting pre-dated seniority number will be off the table since they can't harm their current members. This is sort of what I was getting at. There is zero chance ...

Re: Negotiations
Same as most grievances, money. The failure to honour the flow as stated on the contract meant nearly 300 pilots will have some 300 +people forever senior to them at Air Canada, impacting everything from bidding rights, vacation, wage increases, the list goes on. What do you think the dollar value ...

Re: Negotiations
In this case it doesn't matter who failed to honour the agreement. Our contract was clearly violated, and that is what the grievance will address. If we are successful, then Jazz and AC can figure out who is to blame, if Jazz wishes to pursue the matter with them. But when it comes to the grievance...

Re: Negotiations
Grievance process going forward for the lack of pilot movement to AC. The next 295 Jazz pilots going to AC will have the opportunity to grieve AC not respecting the 60% commitment. To be followed. This doesn't make any sense. How can they "grieve" Air Canada, for something done while they were not ...
