American Airlines and the Transport Workers Union Reach Tentative Agreements in Principle for Simula

[IORFA]

So IF these 2 groups pass the TA's, then AA will have what, another 100 employees under contract? Moving at light speed!! Anyone know details?
EDIT: My bad it is closer to 240 employees.

At least someone has a TA... I hope it has the domino effect!!

AA just added part of their last proposal to the FSC's on the propaganda website. Not knowing the ins and outs of your contract, how good/bad is what they are showing? Also, I know that there is a lot of bad that comes with the signing bonus and pay increases. Anyone know what the bad is, other than the day line cleaning, fueling and bus driver loses? Also, your medical must be bad if they don't want changes. Ours, APFA, is reasonably priced. Worse than it used to be, but AA wants us to pay more.

TA, yes. A T/A that will get voted in? That is the huge question.

It is not a large number of employees but I agree that it's a good sign of progress, at least.

Let's hope for more TA's to come.

From what I've read it sounds like this was a give-and-take tentative agreement. Company won some, union won some.

And that's exactly the definition of compromise. Many of you seem to forget that these are negotiations. Neither side will end up with everything it asked for.
