Fair enough but can it agree to contractual changes? Ie. things contained within the Memorandum of Agreement??
I doubt it. I imagine BALPA can only agree to changes in BALPA agreements, such as the hotel agreement. Pilots contracts are between the individual pilot and the company. My understanding is that the MOA, whilst negotiated by BALPA, is contractual rather than simply a union agreement. Of course, I stand to be corrected.
I imagine that non-BALPA members would be particularly annoyed if their contract were to be changed without their consent. In fact, surely that can't be legal.
Before I give the wrong impression, I am am full BALPA member.
