    Delta still trying to get the Max deal done with Boeing

    I really hope Delta and Boeing can get this deal done with the Max10. I think it will get other Airlines to look at the Max10. Which I hope it gets SWA to look at the Max10. I have no idea what the hold up is for Delta and Boeing to come to an agreement, but my gosh why wouldn't Boeing want to...

    AMFA files with NMB for representational election vote @ Spirit Airlines

    Very nice to see AMFA helping out the Spirit Mechanics even though they do not represent them "YET". Can't wait to hear from the NMB on an election @ Spirit. Sun Country's vote tally only a week away 6-8, maybe we will hear from NMB by then or around then, such sweet justice for the Mechanic...

    Delta expects PRE-pandemic revenue increases for 2Q

    I sure hope this comes true for Delta and other airlines. I do believe all the cancelations and delays will hurt a bit, but nice to get back to pre-pandemic levels. Now let's get all the hiring done to get staffing levels up to take care of all the needs...

    JetBlue Jumps In With premium Offer For Spirit

    So, not really sure of the ISS move here. They recommend not voting for the Frontier offer, and at same time can't say to go with the improved/enhanced JetBlue offer either. But to simply nego a better break up fee? Not very smart advice. I really don't see the benefit of doing that...

    Frontier to buy Spirit: New Representation elections

    Next you add a full cup of "drama" and stir vigorously, until thoroughly blended in. Keeps getting more and more interesting (at least in the media outlets) :) https://www.yahoo.com/news/advisers-tell-spirit-shareholders-reject-172251209.html

    American Airlines adding nonstop flight from Tulsa to New York City

    Smart move, so not spend too much $$ at the start to test the waters. Makes sense. There was an article in one of the Biz Journals about the CEO of American bragging of how much "better" the North Alliance is working over their expectations. Just another way of taunting the gov for an...

    Flight Attendant Assaulted

    Maybe I was being a bit tough due to it was one of our F/A's. As I have had some discussions, one with an attorney, and the 15 month sentence, according to her, is above what most regular folks would have received for a first time offence. The reasoning behind the "up to 20 years" she was...

    AMFA Files With NMB For A Representational Vote @ Sun Country Mechanic And Related

    Forgot to update this page. Sun Country election tally is now postponed by NMB until 6-8-22 due to misprinted ballots by the group hired for the mailing instructions and Ballots. Here's the info below: YOUR UNION RERUN ELECTION Updated On: Apr 12, 2022 April 12, 2022 Dear...

    New Card Drive Started @ AA--Mechanic and Related

    Just FYI for the Mechanics at AA. As usual, anytime an AMFA card drive starts up at, almost, any airline, the misinformation, lies and completely made up stories come out of the wood works. Yes this involves the Mechanics at Sun Country but it is the exact same rhetoric being spread here on...

    Frontier to buy Spirit: New Representation elections

    ELECTION INTERFERENCE!!! Spirits management just opened a beautiful big door. AMFA's legal team just put the NMB on notice of the interference by Director of Maint @ Spirit. This will be the perfect storm if the first election fails to get enough cards, which it shouldn't as there were...

    American Airlines adding nonstop flight from Tulsa to New York City

    Could they be holding back from making mainline until approval gets walked thru? Maybe a temp move until approved?? IDK just thinking out loud.

    American Airlines adding nonstop flight from Tulsa to New York City

    Pretty sure AA and JB are making these moves to, in hopes, better entice the gov to approve the alliance. I would be curious about what concessions the gov may ask for to approve the alliance. And will it get political...

    Flight Attendant Assaulted

    WOW!!! Only 15 months out of 240 max months for causing 3 teeth chipped, 2 requiring crowns, open wound below eye that required stitches, loss time from work and pain and suffering to say the least. I think a minimum of 3 years would have been more fitting and more like a 5 year sentence is...

    American Airlines adding nonstop flight from Tulsa to New York City

    How would adding just one flight, and directly tied to the NAA between JB and AA, have to do with triggering a recall? Unless you are being a bit sarcastic LuLu?? I also read the article this morning about the added 6 flights being added do to the agreement.
