operations to Sabre

[NevadaHP]

any CLP agent who performs a west flt come may 15th will be doing someone elses former job!! This is BS and needs to be NEGOTIATED. OHH and by the way i was told today from a co-worker that the IAM will be selecting an arbitrator this week for the grievance only 3 weeks late.

Look you need to get over it. CLP is here and it doesnt get rid of jobs. You still need a CLP cordinator in each station. Where Im at the west guys will continue to set up load plans from CLP.
We dont need infighting we need to all stick together and make sure we get a fair agreement for all.
Trust me the company loves the east vs west stuff.

Is anyone in the West being furloughed as a result of this?

 

[nycbusdriver]

my understanding is it has not been completed yet, perhaps May.
regards,

Rode a west-metal jumpseat the other day. The flight release looked exactly like the ones we've been using in the east for over 15 years. The weight & balance looked a bit arcane, but I guess it just depends on what one is used to.

heard today it may be postponed to later date due to IT problems.

October.

I hope your right about the switch being October, the longer they wait the better, the transition to FOS/DECs/SABRE/FADS will be rough, its a step back 20 years in technology.

Compared to what ? What HP is using is stone age technology east stopped using 10 years ago.

Flight trac.

If west ramp computer system is as screwed up and backwards as shares we would certainly be in deep doo doo. Thank goodness for Sabre. If only the princes in the sandcastle had thought out the res change. If they had really done their job we wouldn't still be trying to cleanup their mess 8 weeks later. And the mess is still with us, ask the agents in Europe who are paralyzed by this pig of a system. The sandcastle knew Shares was not able to handle true international ticketing and elected to go ahead anyway. That's real leadership. In any other business an executive that pushed through such a monumental disaster would be on the street , but not, us we give them a bonus. FUMU. You know what you're doing is not going to work because it has not been properly tested and upgraded and will probably cost millions , but let's do it anyway and try to fix it later and put a spin on it and blame the problem on the legacy systems , without telling that the "new" system is an older legacy system. There's some great management for you! Blame everyone/thing else except those that caused the problem to begin with.

The systems HP uses in SOC are barely 10 years old, so east couldn't have stopped using them 10 years ago. They are windows based, not DOS based programs.

Yeah, Windows 3.1

October.

Was told today by my manager it has been postponed until late summer or Sept.
No reason was given.
My guess is training is going slow with the pilots.
Just a guess.

Too many people screwed up on Shares. Can't believe any of them still have jobs.

=============================================

Guess again. I heard that it is an esoteric back office that should have absolutely nothing to do with what type of Flight Operation System is in use.
