Do not be over confident. This is not the same as moving between bases at US Airways or starting at a new airline with Initial Training. Maestro is an entirely different from Catcrew in appearance, operation, accessibility and timeline. You won't have a lot of time to just "figure it out."...

Look, this is a really half-assed attempt to blow smoke up everyone's skirt. You are not an East Guy and you are not a transfer guy. You don't have the numbers even remotely correct. Your hatred of Phoenix Inflight and AFA66 is deeply personal. It was a past attempt to be this kind of clever...

No, I have no desire to increase the problem. My post was an plea for some restraints to be put on this, not to perpetuate it. The numerous FB pages that flight attendants created become more and more bizarre with the posts of various AFA elected officials, past and present. I agree that we...

Dear Council 70, Your President has sunk to either a new low of ugly sentiment or lethal grammatical mistake on FB this morning.. Do something about it, it just keeps getting worse. What an embarrassment.

I really don't want to get into this but I may I point out that the Stars of WP have no problem censoring those who disagree with them on "their" FB site, yet do not self edit when they decide to name call and attempt to organize against the DCA LEC on same site. A whole lot of hypocrisy. But...

We have an opportunity to achieve two steps of improvements within a short period of time. --Realities of Merger and Negotiations OurAfa.org December 21, 2012 We can improve our position twice in a short time --Merger Update OurAFA.org January 4, 2013 After the merger announcement, NMB...

So far the NMB has not required anything from management since TA2 failed. No one can say with certainty that they will have to deal with us as a separate group. The trinket police (Union and apparently the Company too?) will be out there, and stepping aside works for me. Had enough of...

BCWYWF's frustration is understandable. AFA is sending elines to the membership that seem to indicate that no one is giving them what they want yet a "New Pin" will make it happen? I kid you not. A new pin. I doubt that the NMB and the company fear pin re-design right now, no matter how...

I did RTQ.... I am flattered (I think) that you peered into my profile to try to determine my position within the company. Although under the current issue, it could be an indication of a bad habit. The beauty of this board is that anyone can be anyone at all...... and technology and the...

I am not an East F/A. You are making an incorrect leap because I didn't like your disdain for his/her questions . Observation. AOL advocates open communication yet you state that you find it irritating that an F/A participates in a open forum discussion. In your estimation it is an...

As the F/A stated, CATCREW is the system where their information is kept. Being condescending or challenging the East F/A who inquired about this is not a good move, they do not have to justify their legitimate concern to AOL. If you did not want speculation as to your methods and motives for...

I don't know about the long term projection but the Cost per Passenger Enplanement (CPE) is a factor in the recent CLT expansion. Article dated May 2009 There's no doubt Pittsburgh's fees are high. The cost per enplanement to the airlines operating out of the airport, an industry benchmark, is...

That is a different answer. I was inquiring about VAFlygirl's statement that all new hires would do the bulk of their training in PHX and then East based new hires go to CLT only for additional aircraft training. Either way, if we don't have a contract by February, a confusing situation to...

Does the company need the 500 new hires coming online throughout 2011 or ready to go for the summer flying and new CLT international flying? If so how can they only use the West facilities for initial training? You can maybe train 75-100 people at a time in the Flight Center in PHX. Who...

Although I would go to the movies and watch Sam Elliot play chess for 2 hours just to hear him say "Checkmate," I do like the Captain Hunicutt idea, but Wayne Rogers or Mike Farrell? I like Mike Farrell, played Hunictt in a nice understated manner.
