JCBA Negotiations and updates for AA Fleet. **New and improved 2.0 version**

[ALUS78]

in ord....over the winter, 157 f/t fscs and 14 c/c. not sure about p/t numbers. lots and lots of overtime.

Probably still better than paying a contract company that is doing nothing when it isn't snowing

 

[CremaDiLimone]

well, you could argue that from ticket agent to ramp.

aa will pay the city to deice and then what? ua gets 15 free car washes, aa has to wait?? 25% of the deicers call in sick during bad weather? flights, hours late?

is it worth it?

 

[ALUS78]

the fact that these guys all back-slap each other on the golf course doesn't change anything for me.

fly-by-night company.

Do you still think the have the "in" ? There are to many if any top AA executives left

If you already have the trucks or are going to provide the trucks which are a big expenditure migjt as well have your own people.Here at LUS they couldnt get enough people who wanted to do it

Still no activity over in any of the Delta Airlines threads I see.

It’s never been a very “robust” forum. There was a small bump post merger when the NW/DL feeds were combined, but that’s it.

Good info, and thank you.

That number seems high.

Sounds like most are content

on the recent bid sheet and seniority list(s). i gave the numbers from the deicing seniority lists, which were itemized; fsc and c/c. i don't have the p/t bid saved for those numbers.

And the same thing will happen here Al, once a contract is signed, good or bad.

Whatever the case, we simply dont need to give it up, provided we don't lose it anyways when Ord goes to a universal deicing pad. Not sure if the city would force us to go to a pad, maybe we can still spray at the gate.

In BWI UA is only airline that has deicing trucks. The state does deicing for all airlines . AA got rid of the trucks several years ago . As far as LUS goes ive never seen deice trucks . they may have had it when PI n US merged

 

[Kev3188]

But UA still does their own? If so, I wonder how they were able to get that exemption?

I guess my MIA President is actually telling people this?

Well if it’s bad then it won’t pass. If it passes then yes you would have to assume most will be content, and if not tough luck.

Majority rules.
