TA
COMPARISON TO UNITED, AMERICAN, CONTINENTAL AND DELTA
In the
last few days the JNC has posted a summary of the Tentative Agreement (TA) and
the full text of the Tentative Agreement on both the East MEC website and the
Council 66 web site. This communication will compare our TA to our Legacy
competitors United, American, Continental and Delta. Compared in this document
are the following:
United
Airlines flight attendants are voting on a Tentative Agreement. The ballot count
date is February 28, 2012. The comparison chart reflects the contents of the
United flight attendant TA. Continental has requested to enter Section 6
negotiations and then enter into single agreement negotiations with United
Airlines. It is not known how long the process will last.
A link
to the United Airlines Tentative summary is copied below:

American Airlines is currently in bankruptcy. The comparison chart reflects
the current American flight attendant contract. American management filed an
1113(c) Term Sheet proposal that guts the current agreement. The flight
attendants will attempt to negotiate with management better terms but absent an
agreement the court could abrogate the contract. A link to the proposed Term
Sheet is below:

SICK
The TA
contains 100% pay and credit for all Sick calls but reduces the accrual per
month from 5+00 hours to 4+30. This accrual is higher than our Legacy
Competitors. Despite the yearly loss of 6 hours accrual the calculation below
reflects an overall gain in Sick.
60 Hour
Accrual per year (5+00 per month) @ 70% = 42 hours of Sick pay per year
54
Hours Accrual per year (4+30 per month) @100% = 54 hours of Sick pay per year
