ER visits, multiple DR visits, etc. That's $166/month. All covered in their cba.
The rub is that they make 40% less than DAL pilots.
The plan I had at the regional I worked for was UHC, had a much better network, less than max half out of pocket and the premiums for the PPO were (get this): $15.
My friend that is now at USair- he pays $27 dollars a month for a PPO.
I rightly expected similar for a top tier company like Delta, because after all our contract is better than both of those places, right? I guess since slowplay is satisfied, it's all good.
