. . . safety in numbers. The only thing I would like to see is if the Atlas certificate is sold then Atlas crews get first dibs on going if there's a choice and vice a versa for the Polar crews.
Now here's a creative idea . .two separate but identical contracts, with two separate but combined seniority lists. We will call this a "bridged" contract. . .tied at the hip for labor clout and operating efficiency's, but with individual reversion rights for job protection!
This idea is outside the box, but so is management's convoluted proposal of one airline masquerading as two . . Fight fire with fire is the answer!
