I understand that they are upset, and that their MEC has the responsibility to raise a stink but why? Not pointing fingers just curious and hope they can explain?
No concessions by eagle? They received profit sharing and a raise?
Eagle will go all jet now (give or take a few places like sju)? 50 seats and below will be eagle pilots? Eagle is slated to receive 100+ jets in the next few years? AA is shrinking? 51 seats and above go to AA of which there are only but about a dozen 70 seaters with none on order? AA flow blacks are only slated to go into jets as they aquire them.(51 and above, did I mention there are none on order?) 100 (give or take a few dozen) possibly able to flow back? Flow up is still in effect and new captain upgrades are still entitled to a number? (even though it will be a while before that reverses) J4J is with other carriers not eagle!
How many have flowed back so far? and how many have flowed up?
It sucks but the only consessions I see being taken by eagle at this time is the small inability to reap higher pay on the 70 seater that will only take a few more, if that. (did I mention there are none on order?) Eagle will still hire because they will still be growing, yes? AA jets has to be negotiated and I also mention that it has to be financially feasible for AA to accept it. Otherswise this could all be for moot. Youve seen how AA jockeys numbers to get what they want.
Not a flame thread, just a differences of opinio thread looking for mature responses to fill in the gaps.
