Only till the first amendment round in 2014. Then all pay rates will be tied to the cheapest competitors and tied to their longevity as well.
Management can persue the arbitration process if necessary to recalculate longevity/rates downward yearly thereafter, ensuring you are "competitive" pilots.....another word is "cheap".
You're screwed.
