If anyone knows?
Why did the shorthaul FAAA not go after increased allowances in international slip ports?
As far as I can see (and I stand to be corrected), they get their DTA paid in cash on regional trips. Are the shorthaul FAAA not aware that LH crew get DTA (in the form of ODTA or ADTA)
plus meal allowances in local currency?
It beggers belief ! Why would they not demand to get the same if not similar meal allowances, particularly in places like NRT where the DTA wouldnt cover lunch, let alone the whole stay!
Even a compromise between having DTA and getting full long haul allowances as well, would save the company dollars from having LH do the flying, so why wasnt it brought up?
Am I missing something (admittedly, I have only recently taken any interest in SH EBAs and all that)
And this new
team leader position ! It's a CSS under another name, yet in longhaul the pay rise from going 2nd year FA (which is when you can apply) to 1st year CSS is $14.37 per hour !!! Regardless of aircraft type.
The shorthaul faaa are really selling their members short [no pun intended].
