Here’s what AA posted regarding the implementation schedule:
(I was going to highlight some items, but for some reason the editing features are not working.) Note that probably in November the schedule monthly max will increase (up to 100 hours); however, it looks as if the 100 hour pay protection will be implemented--TBD, but no later than DOS+12. Say August or September of NEXT YEAR. (I'm shocked. Shocked, I tell you. Round up the usual suspects.)
Q: Is the LBFO implementation schedule known, assuming ratification?
A: The tentative Implementation Schedule is below:
