I ve avoided travel guide free brochures writing about the recent American Airlines pilot slowdown because I don t have anything to add to the subject that probably hasn t been better expressed elsewhere. I have, though, followed travel guide free brochures the events with great interest and I came across an interesting post that I thought I d share.
Terry Maxon writes about American, the aviation industry, and travel news for the Dallas Morning News Aviation Biz blog. Today he published a letter from an AA pilot asking former AMR CEO Robert Crandall to share his thoughts travel guide free brochures about the current state of labor relations. He also published Mr. Crandall s response.
I'm interested travel guide free brochures in the future of AA. Most specifically, I'm left to wonder if it's a future which includes me and my colleagues as assets or instead as nameless, faceless liabilities. Thus, I simply ask you the following:
The pilots, as you well know, recently voted down the Company's LBFO (Last Best Final Offer) . That proposal, if approved, would have awarded the pilots a generous piece of equity, would have allowed the pilot group a substantial voice in the governance of the new company and did not – so far as I know – impose travel guide free brochures conditions materially different travel guide free brochures from those in effect at other major airlines. Thus, I was and remain mystified as to why the pilots – having turned down an agreement materially better than the company's original travel guide free brochures proposals, are now angry that alternative proposals are being implemented. Wasn't that always the clear alternative to approval?
In recent days, the airline has not run well, and it seems clear that is true – in whole or in part – because pilots are expressing their unhappiness in various ways intended to reduce the systems reliability. travel guide free brochures Such actions (1) are disrespectful of other employees, customers and management, (2) are dismissive of the protocols of dispute resolution, (3) reject any notion travel guide free brochures of accepting responsibility for the decision to turn down the LBFO and (4) imply that the pilots believe their business judgments about what is and is not competitively sustainable are superior to those of management.
Couldn t agree more with this. In order to stay in business and compete with other other big Mega Airlines out there now everyone is going to have to come online with new industry standards or find other employment. travel guide free brochures I love American Airlines but the way the pilots are acting is like they don t care for the company, or the customers they fly.
Not to side with big business TOO much here, but I think I have to agree on this front. It serves no one s interest for the company to struggle. The customers lose in the end in terms of service which in turn ultimately hurts AA (people hoping to another program).
Along that same front the executives at American shouldn t reward themselves with millions in bonuses either which I assume will happen travel guide free brochures when they successfully navigate the bAAnkrupcy (just before they devalue the AAdvantage program).
