American Airlines and Labor Negotiations

[swamt]

Does anybody KNOW what the association is not willing to move off of during negotiations?

Or as our union rep would say, as soon as AA budges we might get a contract. But budge off of what is the question.

Yes. I do know.

Trying to make the legal issues go away so they don't have what AMFA is facing at SWA.

Dude it is waaaaaaaay worse at your carrier than it is at ours. GET A CLUE>>>

 

[La Li Lu Le Lo]

Really? You need to get more educated on what has happened in the past. I can name a dozen folks that have left AA with way more years than 10 at AA that have in fact came over to SWA.

The exception, not the rule.

Not much pf an update but heard from couple negotiatiors we as Fleet might have deal by yr end. Our union rep also told us as well. I personally doubt it til i actually see it in writing.

Was just wonder about this, considering nothing was put out.
Wondered if it was good or bad thing
Time will tell and yeah I will believe it when I see it

Well then, I guess it's the TWU members that will take the shaft once again.

Yup, we're real close. Any day now....tick....tick.....tick

Hell, I almost left in 2012 for SWA. Probably would have, if I was 55 at the time. The offer was there. It happens more than you might think.

Good thing there isn’t video evidence of the twu president threatening the AA president or we would be in trouble.

Too late!!

If these rumors are true about the split, and fleet stays with IAM that means we have been screwed because most likely it will take the 401k match off the table for fleet and we will be stuck with that sorry pension.
I believe this will cost votes because I know many fleet guys and gals who want nothing to do with that pension

We heard the same for almost 2 more years after being in nego's for 4 years too. We were told every year and summer we would have an agreement by then. As mentioned before the claims of getting a deal by such and such time rumors will greatly increase with the great energy the card drive is getting this time around.
