Good news!

The latest ALPA update came in last night and it confirms that there is a process agreement:

Merger Committee Update
A Joint Message from the ATN MEC Merger Committee and the SWAPA Negotiating Committee.

On Thursday, the SWAPA Negotiating Committee and AirTran ALPA Merger Committee reached agreement on the remaining open issues of our Process Agreement, which will govern the protocol and timeline used to attain an integrated seniority list (ISL). Prior to final agreement, our respective legal and management teams must review the document, as the leadership of Southwest and AirTran will also be signatories to the four-party agreement.

When the process agreement is finalized and approved by all parties, it will be made available to the membership at atnmerger.alpa.org.

On one of the message boards Todd says that a negotiated deal COULD HAPPEN BY THIS SUMMER!

That seems pretty optimistic, but crossing my fingers!

On a lighter note ... this has been making the rounds ... it is a little off color, but really funny ... Ok it is more than a little off color ... F bombs galore
