Ok, Maybe it's my turn to close a thread. But I suspect not.
Polar entered their strike hoping to get the same hourly rate as Atlas. Wasn't gonna happen, considering their work rules and rigs.
Polar is pissed at being a step child. Born of Ned and Mark, given up to GE, and now in the hands of AAWWH. And not making any money.
Polar figures that the Japanase LR are more important than anything, and strikes.
Polar forgets that they forced a Judge to validate tha Alliance agreement.
Atlas flys their schedule, drops all the Polar flights, to no affect, Polar is a losing proposition, dropping the PAC flights actually results in a net gain for AAWWH.
Polar then shuts down Atlas. Now the "stuff" happens.
Assertions of scabbing, assaults, name calling, etc.
Polar finally got back in, not cause of a concerted ALPA action, because of a unified Atlas Action.
Polar should be sold. Again. As a stockholder in AAWWH, that's my recommendation.
I've flown with both companies, and I'll be glad when Polar is a total part of my past.
Someone, please give World 25 bucks to take these guys off my back.
