PICKETING
***Scroll down for Aug. 31st family awareness event details***
The MANDATORY pre-picket briefing will be held at the The Westin Detroit Metropolitan Airport, 2501 Worldgateway Pl, Detroit, MI 48242
Arrive at the The Westin Detroit Metropolitan Airport no later than 9:30am. The MANDATORY pre-picket briefing starts sharp at 9:30am. Picketing will commence at 10:30AM and end roughly at 12:30pm.
We plan on Summer Uniform, No IDs and Green Lanyards. Probationary pilots will not be able to picket but can help out in non-picketing areas.
If you will be attending the picket after the initial briefing, you can still participate as long as you make it to the hotel and get briefed. The hotel will have a secure area to keep your bags.
Please park at the Employee Parking. Refreshments will be served.
FAMILY AWARENESS EVENT
The day before the Picketing event, we will have a family awareness event that you are invited to attend. Attendance is optional and it is entirely acceptable to attend one or the other or both. The family awareness event is planned for August 31st from 4pm to 8pm at Cass Benton Park in Northville. Pilots are encouraged to bring their family members with them, as this event is focused on communicating to our families what we are doing and why we are doing it. The further we go down the path of negotiations that may end in a strike, the more essential it becomes to have our families in the loop and up to speed on what to expect. Food and drinks will be provided and will be kid-friendly with respect to food and entertainment. If you can attend, please indicate how many family members you will be bringing with you when you register on this site.
