Ok...I have 16 years with HP, not quite 7 years in inflight. I hold a line with 4 day trips that check in late on Sunday and have either an early or mid-day return on Wednesday, or I can hold late check in on Wednesday with a mid-day return on Saturday. I have been able to hold this kind of line for nearly 2 years. I do not have to work a full weekend unless it is by my own choice. An 8-15 or 16 year flight attendant at US is on reserves. If we go by straight DOH I as a line holder will now be junior to a flight attendant who is on reserves. They will now have a line and I will be back on reserves. Yeah, sure...I see how that is fair. NOT!!
And Hulagirl...stop speaking for "all" or even the majority of the HP flight attendants. I have not spoken to even one HP flight attendant, junior or senior, who thinks it's fair.
The pilots have come together with a plan for "relative seniority integration" which will make it easier for them to work together. Too bad it's not that way in inflight, too. We all want this merger to work....this sentiment I HAVE heard from everyone.
