Fleet Service Update

While your negotiating committee began the week optimistically, the company continues to fall very short of the expectations it set and relayed to Association members when negotiations began.

Your committee remains dedicated to the negotiations process, but is disappointed by the lack of progress, due almost entirely to company management’s work-rule proposals that would adversely impact the membership’s quality of life.

Although we did not achieve any TAs this week, the committee was able to narrow down the issues on a number of the remaining open articles. We exchanged multiple proposals regarding Shift Trades, Work Schedules, and Hours of Work.

We have not received any new proposals from the company, but did propose language regarding Severance Allowance and are awaiting American’s response.

Future Fleet negotiations dates and locations are as follows:

Week of May 23, DFW Week of July 18, DCA Week of August 22, NYC
Week of June 13, DFW Week of July 25, NYC Week of August 29, DCA
Week of June 20, DCA Week of August 1, DFW
Week of June 27, DFW Week of August 8, DFW

Fraternally,

Mike Baskett Mike Fairbanks Pete Hogan Tim Hughes
