TRANSFER BID REOPENED
As a result of the need to displace 89 Flight
Attendants to CLT the Company has decided to
reopen the voluntary Transfer Bid. The Bid will
now close on Sunday, June 27.
At the Union's urging, Vice President of
InFlight, Hector Adler sent a letter explaining
the Company's reasons for the growth in CLT and
therefore the need to increase the CLT Flight
Attendant staffing. Mr. Adler's letter contained
a lot of words but very few actual numbers. The
Union has been able to determine that CLT Block
Hours will increase and PHL Block Hours will
decrease (in addition to the normal fall
reduction as a result of the pull down of
seasonal transatlantic flying) on a long term
basis.
As stated in yesterday's Eline, the Union still
believes we have the right to be updated on a
regular basis on block hour projections by
domicile. That information will allow us to
inform our members of what the Company is doing
with flying as they continue to realign the
airline.
The reason the Union has pushed for a more
detailed explanation of where the flying is
going and why should be self evident to the
Company. People need to know what to expect as
they make important decisions regarding their
work lives.
