Dear Dr. Marcel Gröls CC: Sebastian Curras

This letter is written on behalf of the members and board of the Icelandic Airline Pilots Association (FIA) and fully reflects our combined opinion on the matters at hand.

Regarding the issue of the Vereinigung Cockpit (VC) and the EW Discover management:

We, the Icelandic Airline Pilots Association (FIA), are committed to working with VC to ensure that all members can expect and receive the right to open and constructive negotiations. It is clearly not an effective solution for any management group to dismiss, out of hand, any sensible negotiations by their employees.

We, the Icelandic Airline Pilots Association (FIA) are fully in support of VC working to secure a mutually acceptable outcome and if necessary, any industrial action that is needed in support of this effort.

With best regards,

Jonas Gudmundsson

Félag íslenskra atvinnuflugmanna styður kjarabaráttu flugmanna Air Canada

Þeir félagsmenn IALPA sem starfa hjá Air Canada eru kjaraviðræðum við sinn vinnuveitanda. Ekki hefur tekist að vinna til baka þær lífsgæða og kjaraskerðingar sem heimsfaraldurinn COVID 19 olli.

Dear Charlene Hudy CC: Sebastian Curras

This letter is written on behalf of the members and board of the Icelandic Airline Pilots Association (FIA) and fully reflects our combined opinion on the matters at hand.

Regarding the issue of the Air Canada pilot group and the Air Canada management.

As the pilot group has consistently worked to ensure the continued operational stability of the airline during the Covid pandemic and indeed has taken unprecedented cut in life and working conditions and undertaken extraordinary operational flexibility to ensure continuity, it is inexplicable that now the airline is in resurgence that the management would not seek to readdress this imbalance and work with the pilot’s group to find a mutually acceptable outcome.

The voluntary and generous measures that many members took during the Covid pandemic to secure the futures of their respective airlines is not to be used as a means of now downgrading their contracts or conditions to a new low. This kind of management strong arm technique is an opportunistic and disgraceful tactic, especially given the very significant efforts and degradation in living/work standards that the crews endured to secure the airlines continuity.

Félag íslenskra atvinnuflugmanna styður kjarabaráttu flugmanna Aer Lingus

Þeir félagsmenn IALPA sem starfa hjá Aer Lingus hafa verið í kjarasamningsviðræðum við sinn vinnuveitanda í um 22 mánuði. Viðræðurnar hafa ekki borið tilætlaðan árangur og því hófu flugmenn Aer Lingus stuttar verkfallsaðgerðir þann 29. júní.

Ekki hefur tekist að vinna til baka þær lífsgæða og kjaraskerðingar sem heimsfaraldurinn COVID 19 olli.

The Nordic Transport Federation (NTF) Civil Aviation Section hittust 30. - 31. maí sl. í Reykjavík til að ræða ITF ráðstefnuna sem verður í Marrakech og aukna samvinnu á milli eininga. Um var að ræða 26 aðila frá Norðurlöndunum sem hittust í sal Flugvirkjafélagsins í Borgartúni. Friðrik Ómarsson, Jónas Þór Guðmundsson og Vala Gauksdóttir tóku þátt fyrir hönd FÍA.

Meðal þess sem fram fór á fundinum voru kynningar á starfsemi íslensku stéttarfélaganna (FÍA, FFÍ og FVFÍ), yfirferð frá fulltrúm VR vegna kjarabaráttu starfsfólks í farþegaafgreiðslu í Keflavík, kynning sagnfræðings á íslenskri sögu og menningu auk þess sem drjúgur tími fór í að ræða málefni hinna ýmsu aðildarfélaga flugráðs NTF á Norðurlöndunum. Að loknum fundi á fimmtudag var fundargestum boðið til 3ja rétta kvöldverðar í boði FÍA, FFÍ og FVFÍ. Fundinum lauk svo á föstudeginum með heimsókn í flugskýli Icelandair, Ground Operations og Network Control Center Í Keflavík.

FÍA vill þakka öllum þeim sem komu að fundinum ásamt skipuleggendum NTF.

Starfsmenntasjóður stóð fyrir hádegisfyrirlestri með Birni Berg Gunnarssyni fjármálaráðgjafa sem kom og hélt erindi um lífeyrismál og starfslok.

Á þessu ítarlega og gagnlega námskeiði var farið vandlega yfir allt sem nauðsynlegt er að vita varðandi fjármál við starfslok.

Meðal þeirra spurninga sem leitað var svara við voru:

Hvenær og hvernig hentar að sækja lífeyrisgreiðslur?
Hvernig göngum við á séreignarsparnað?
Hvað þarf að vita varðandi greiðslur og skerðingar almannatrygginga?
Er skynsamlegt að sækja hálfan lífeyri?
Hvernig deili ég lífeyri með makanum mínum?
Hvaða skatta kem ég til með að greiða?

Góð þáttaka var á viðburðinn og einnig var honum streymt. Fyrirlesturinn er aðgengilegur félagsmönnum í appinu og á innri vef FÍA. Slóðina má einnig finna á facebook síðu Starfsmenntasjóðsins.

Starfsmenntasjóður FÍA þakkar fyrir góða áheyrn.

Kæru félagar,

Í dag föstudaginn 26. apríl er Alþjóðlegur dagur flugmanna.

FÍA sendir félagsmönnum FÍA sem og samstarfsfólki okkar í flugiðnaðinum árnaðaróskir í tilefni dagsins og þakkir fyrir komuna í flugmannakaffi í dag.
