Negotiating Committee Update – August 5, 2025

Fellow Pilots,

The Negotiating Committee met with the company and Mediator yesterday in order to discuss the Union’s July 16th, 2025 comprehensive proposal. The company asked questions on the remaining sections of the Union’s proposal that were not answered in our July 28th session. We look forward to receiving a counter proposal and hope that the company takes this opportunity to move us closer to an agreement. Once the NC has received a counter proposal, we will review it and provide feedback to the pilots on where we stand in relation to completing a full tentative agreement.

The parties also discussed dates for upcoming mediation sessions. Our next scheduled session with the mediator is on August 25, 28 and 29 followed by the week of September 22. The mediator also offered tentative dates for October which both the Company and the Union confirmed and are waiting for final approval by the mediator. The NC encourages the company to provide a counter proposal BEFORE the next mediation session in order to be more efficient in our limited time with the mediator. We have also let the company know that the NC will make ourselves available to meet outside of mediation should the company choose to do so.

We will provide an update as more information becomes available.

In Unity,

Captain Joshua Allen
Negotiating Committee Chairman
