PHX Flight Attendants & Pilots Crew News Videos Now Online: August 11, 2011
Leadership met with crew members in PHX recently for the latest Crew News sessions – which are held monthly. If you didn’t get a chance to attend the meetings you can check out the video replays at the link below. Both sessions are very informative with information from the F/A section on creative ways to close a new contract this fall that prevent a deal from being made due to pilot contract problems. In addition, Doug made very thoughtful comments at the Crew News sessions; as well as some thoughts on the recent PHX Check Airman meeting.

The Flight Attendant session covered the following topics:
Introduction
PHX Hub Status
4 Day Trips, Joint Contract
Lanyard Monitoring
CateringAudit
No Triple Play Payout (very informative discussion)
9am PHX Bank
Xawaii Provisioning
The U.S. Economy
Thanks & Conclusion
The Pilot session covered the following topics:
Introduction
Lawsuit
Check Airman Meeting (Doug indicates company's attorney's believe DJ Lawsuit will last 2.5 years or find another path, but does not know how that would happen. This is an excellent discussion.)
Seniority Follow Up (Another excellent discussion)
Morale
New Hire Recognition
Thanks & Conclusion
I believe every employee should view both of these Crew News sessions.
In my opinion, after listening to both Crew News sessions, the AFA is nearing a deal.
USAPA's current approach will take 2.5 years to get the seniority integration complete and another 1.5 years to get a new contract, 4 total years, or almost 8 years for USAPA to deliver a joint operation/new contract (more than 10 years after the merger closed). Is that an approach the majority of the East Coast-based pilots envisioned when they elected USAPA as their CBA?
