I got an unofficial e-mail that said 84 to CLT, 206 to PHL, 14 to DCA from PIT. Why hasn't AFA sent anything out ????
sky high states: Those stats reflect comments out on the line. Majority---> PHL.
only stating opinions

Trying to put this together is like trying to put together a Rubik's Cube with the colors switched around. Who is displaced? How many active? How many inactive? Will they allow for running over to avoid displacement? How many and from where will take the 20K? Too many pieces to this puzzle and no pattern yet.
Good thing no other employees want to non-rev into Pittsburgh. I can see MDT and LGA seeing more of the commuters passing through.
where do people expect them to go? it's not their fault the base closed. they gotta go somewhere.
they can't fault them for coming to phl . it's where all the good flying is at .if others were in there position they would do the same thing. hey, i am getting bumped too . but it's the way it is . live with it. don't mean to sound harsh but it's reality.
The reality of life is that people are only concerened with what affects them. The people who are going to be displaced or go back on reserve because of these people coming in care about one thing, themselves and are pissed. So don't expect the them to be all warm and fuzzy to these people. That is reality. Not everyone chugs the Kool Aide like you etops.

Do you think these people are HAPPY about now having to commute ? Do you think they should quit their jobs so that YOU can stay a block holder ? I am getting bumped down too but I know it's not their fault. I'm sure they would much rather stay in PIT if the base remained open. You've posted on here that you are a single mom w/ two kids and can not live on this reserve system, perhaps this is no longer the job for you because the salary is just not enough. I plan on welcoming the PIT people...I was based there at one time and it will be great to see everyone again. I'm not going to blame them for what management did and neither should you.
I wish my worries were as simple as losing my block . I am on reserve and face yet again being displaced. Everyone on here can say oh how they welcome everyone, blah blah but deep down they resent these people coming in and eveyone knows it. I was one of the previous diplacments from PIT and nobody seemed to care about us nor did they make any special accomadations like they are doing for these people. Oh by the way let me make my decisions on what is good for me and my kids.
