IFALPA Daily News_23 September,2011

A tentative agreement has been reached between the Southwest Airlines Pilots' Association (SWAPA), the union representing Southwest Airlines Pilots, and the Air Line Pilots Association International (ALPA), the union representing the pilots of AirTran Airways. This tentative agreement would integrate the two groups' seniority lists. SWAPA's Board of Directors and ALPA's Master Executive Council both approved the agreement, allowing the membership of each Pilot's Union to review the proposed agreement and ultimately put it to a ratification vote. Southwest Airlines finalized closing of the acquisition of AirTran Holdings, Inc. on May 2, 2011. "The unions and Company negotiating teams never lost focus on the ultimate goal of creating an integrated seniority list and transition plan for our Pilots outside of arbitration," said Mike Van de Ven, Southwest Airlines Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer. "All parties took ownership of their role in the integration of AirTran into Southwest Airlines, and I want to congratulate our teams for delivering what we feel is a fair and equitable deal for both sides”. Each Pilot group will now spend the next four to six weeks reviewing the tentative agreement before putting it up for a ratification vote. SWAPA represents more than 6,000 Southwest Airlines Pilots, and ALPA represents close to 1,600 AirTran Pilots.

Colleagues,

We have received further information from Aus-ALPA since I last contacted you all on October 29th regarding the situation at Qantas. As you are probably aware from the media, the Australian industrial  commission, known as Fair Work Australia, has intervened in the dispute, as it is able to do if national interest is at risk, and ordered both the cessation of industrial action by all the unions and end to the lockout imposed by the company. There will now be conciliation over a period of 21 days and, should an agreement by all parties not be forthcoming in this time, binding arbitration will follow.

  Clearly this is not the end of the road, but the urgent request for “Mutual Assistance to Pilots Stranded Away from Home Base” is no longer required and this request is withdrawn. The Federation will continue to work closely with AUS-ALPA to give them all necessary support at this difficult time, and will keep all Member Associations briefed on the situation as it develops. The precedent set here, by which an employer can escalate a dispute to a level where intervention by government agencies is inevitable, must be a concern to us all.

  Finally, I have been asked by AUS-ALPA to pass on their thanks for the support they have received from other IFALPA Members Associations, it has been much appreciated.   

  Kind Regards,

Captain Don Wykoff

IFALPA President
