An interesting excerpt from the article: (Kirby is president of American Airlines)
The proposal does not include the company’s initial request to add five seats to the regional jet work scope section of the contract to allow regional carriers, like Envoy Air and Piedmont Airlines, to fly jets with 81 seats instead of the current limit of 76.
Kirby said adding those five seats would translate into tens of millions of dollars in new revenue annually for the airline.
“Even though we believe the scope request is in the best interest of all involved, we believe that establishing trust with our employees is even more important,” Kirby wrote. “Today’s proposal omits a request to add five seats to the 76-seat jets as a sign of good faith to demonstrate the trust we want to build.”
