    Q&A: Why is management “guest starring” in some of the TA2 videos?

    November 28, 2014 10:28

    Q: Why is management guest starring in some of the TA2 videos?

    A: The Negotiating Committee knew there would be concerns and questions about the implementation schedule as well as changes to management flying. The NC asked management to film a video explaining the challenges that prevent us from swiftly implementing various provisions requiring automation changes. We also asked management to film a video explaining the management flying provisions and why they are so important to upper management. Both of these provisions were extremely important to management so the NC thought it would be helpful for the Membership to hear directly from management regarding their perspective on implementation and management flying.

      Will “Management flying positions ” be added to specific parings before the bid process?
      How many of these positions will be allocated per month?
      If these positions are awarded to management outside of our bidding schedule, what will be the guidelines for management flight position awards?

        Hi Krista,

        Management will only be added to pairings as an extra unless in lieu of a cancellation pursuant to the provisions of Section 3 Scope. See Section 3.D. of TA2. The possibility of being added is once the pairings are uploaded into the system. They will compliment the crew, not take over bid positions. No Flight Attendant bid positions will be allocated for managers to fly.
