Lack of any real accountability or governance.Mrbobmarly111 wrote: ↑Sat Sep 05, 2020 12:57 pm Honestly everyone im not opposed for hearing legitimate arguments for switching to ALPA. But all i hear is people BIT$&ing about how ACPA is "Broken". Give some examples about how things can be better. Also just saying ACPA mgmt is useless... well guess what that is useless. The people the members vote in wont change with a change in union. Right now a year 5 FO at AC has alot of options from top of the list 320 to 20 ish percent on a 777. The pay would be between 110 to 180 000 in the 5th year at the company. Compared to Westjet and Jazz as a FO at Jazz prob 50-60000 and westjet maybe 90 000. And the schedule at AC is way better. Dont believe the bullsh!t that Jazz has it all so much better. My buddy whos worked at AC for 2 year on the 320 has 19 days off a month. How HOW do you compete.
Do yourself a favor and stop going on AV canada and caring about such stupid issues and get to AC asap.
With the ALPA model you are held to a higher standard, and if things go south you end up in front of a panel of your peers (members from other airlines)..
As it stands right now the MEC Chair has virtually unlimited power, as do a number of unelected committee members and chairs.
