Wide body order

Is this an attempt by AC to satisfy the widebody fleet numbers to delay opening of bargaining?

Re: Negotiations
The only problem with just covering 100% of the benefit premiums is that is does not help recruitment much because people don’t really appreciate how much we lose in deductions until they are already hired. It’s attracting them in the first place that is the problem, and they need to be able to adve...

Re: Negotiations
Jazz management is claiming the raises we are asking for would make the margins from the CPA evaporate. So to afford the raises, AC would need to be willing to renegotiate the CPA with larger margins. So yes AC needs to sign off on it.

Re: Negotiations
The reason we are able to negotiate inside a 17 year contract( now 12 years left) is the company cannot recruit/retain at the current pay rates. So Jazz management came to the union to negotiate. Why don't we have a new agreement yet? For the same reason Westjet doesn't have an agreement yet. Manage...

Re: WestJet "sets the record straight"
I’m starting to think “accountant” is not management at all but is the wingsuit guy and is obviously one of the few WestJet pilots that voted against the strike

Re: Is Onex sniffing around?
Transat can and probably will remain independent for years to come. They have a very loyal customer following, will be forever propped up by the Quebec government and I think being bought out by ONEX would actually hurt their brand.

Re: Flair Pilots
In the US new hires are skipping pay steps and getting higher starting salaries/higher signing bonuses/direct entry Captain based on previous experience. Of course they still go to the bottom of the list so while they might get DEC their schedule is crap for quite some time as internal FOs get upgra...

Re: Smaller Westjet vs Pay Pilots
Until the gov invokes the notwithstanding clause like the Ontario PCs did against the teachers aides a couple of months ago. Look, I hope you are right and I hope the Westjet pilots achieve the gains they deserve but go into this with eyes wide open

Re: Latest MEC Bulletin
That is rubbish. Pilots at most of the CPA carriers in the US have 100% guaranteed flow with no interview required and reserved seniority numbers at their affiliated majors and that has not diminished pay at either. On the contrary, they have achieved extraordinary gains, at both the CPA and majors ...

Re: Smaller Westjet vs Pay Pilots
IF there is a strike, please open a GoFundMe and I will donate to help the striking pilot costs. Would the union pay the pilots some kind of wage during the strike? If so, how much? Section 65 - Strike Policy of the Alpa Administrative Manual. $1,400 per month prorated if strike ends earlier. edite...
