Noticed that IAH has over 90 mainline flights per week now. Is the union responsible for determining if the 90+ per year flight threshold is exceeded or does the company notify the union?
I believe a non class 1 station needs 175 flights a week to be considered a class 1.I finally took the time to look it up myself...
"Article 3 - Recognition and Scope
3. Change in Station Classification:
D. Should an outsourced station's weekly mainline departures increase to more than ninety-eight (98) weekly departures on an annualized basis, such station shall become a Class II station. For the period of May 8, 2008 through December 30, 2011 the Company will not be required to in-source any work or station that is out-sourced on May 8,2008.
Article 3 - Recognition and Scope
3. Change in Station Classification:
(c ) Changes in city classification shall be based on a twelve (12) month weekly average, with the average to be calculated each year on April 5. All calculations for scheduled mainline jet departures will be based on US Airways, Inc., jet departures only, and excluding any aircraft with a seating configuration of sixty-nine (69) or fewer seats."
So it would appear that the Company is keeping it just below the 98 weekly average number of mainline flights into IAH, as I think ATL is around 112 mainline weekly flights, thus why it is becoming a Class II station.
I question what is the cut-off that would allow a station to become contracted-out again? Less than 98 weekly average mainline flights per week? That's only two less mainline flights per day for ATL... not sure I would want to move there given Express flights could easily make those segments between PHL and CLT into ATL. I know that many stations were specifically identified within the CBA, but I do not recall ATL being listed, and I do not know if a formerly out-sourced station (especially a former East city) would have a different minimum number of average mainline flights per week compared to other stations.
Any ideas?

What is the “book”T We are hearing it's in our book but not in the contract.
If the book is the contract and the language is in the contract why don’t you think the company will honor it? Sounds like a slam-dunk win in a grievance for IAMOur copy of the contract.
Nah, no raise in January. Your contract is the contract that says 2% pay raise Jan 1, 2012 on the compensation schedule, evan after both sets of attorneys reviewed it. But the no direction is now telling you that it is a 'misprint'. While there did seem to be plenty of misprints in this contract, why does the union only agree to the alleged misprints when they go in the company's favor? What happened to the 101 misprints that Delaney said they were going to "Fix"?The contract you have is the contract. You will be getting your raise. Sounds to me like some moron spreading a rumor in an attempt for attention.
So the 2% pay rise on January 1, 2012 is a misprintNah, no raise in January. Your contract is the contract that says 2% pay raise Jan 1, 2012 on the compensation schedule, evan after both sets of attorneys reviewed it. But the no direction is now telling you that it is a 'misprint'.

All I'm saying is that MF is running at the lip in CLT saying that the 2% is a misprint and that you have to go by the T/A. But then why don't they say the same thing about how the contract contains over 100 'marked word changes' from the T/A? I mean, if we are going by the T/A then let's go by it entirely instead of playing company side on all the things that go against the membership.So the 2% pay rise on January 1, 2012 is a misprint
Sounds like you are saying that there are a lot of misprints and the rise could be one
