Just flew with an Alpo committee member who said the union expects the company to offer some kind of buyout program to thin the ranks of the U side of the operation and allow some quick upward movement. The thinking is that this will calm the waters and facilitate some kind of agreement between the pilot groups. If I had to guess, I would say this will not work.
The number he said he heard was 250G to the first 500 who take it. He said the total cost of 125 million is virtually the same as the company has said they would budget for a new combined contract, so they would spend that amount over the next year IF it leads to a combined operation at that time. Again, my reading of the pilot group is that this would be a non-starter, but I could be wrong.
Does USA320Pilot or any of the other MEC connected guys on this forum have any info on this?
