Continental pilots ready to arbitrate new 70-seat operations
24. november 2010 06:56 | PilotsFlight Global
Continental pilots and management plan to begin the arbitration process in the second week of December to resolve pilot claims that deploying United Express 70-seat jets from Continental's hubs violates scope clauses in the Continental collective bargaining agreement.
Scope clauses are mainstays of US carrier mainline pilot contract that limit the number of 70-seat jets flown by regional carriers under mainline banners. Continental has one of the most restrictive, prohibiting the operation of any 70-seat aircraft. During its restructuring earlier this decade United gained substantial relief on scope, and now flies a large number of 70-seat jets.
