Why not work for free? I mean Pinnacle must be just that awesome.
Oh and the union is supporting that worse than average pay, but 4 years ago they were fighting against it.

Pinnacle pilots are not
giving up anything. This TA is being shoved down our throats. We can either stay employed or the bulk of our aircraft will go to Gojets, S5, and CPZ. Those three DCI carriers are significantly cheaper than our concessionary TA.
Would you rather we let the bar slip even further down the toilet by voting it down. Would that make your next negotiations easier when you are now competing with them for lift? This TA sucks and nobody at 9E thinks otherwise. However, it is better than the alternative.
You guys still crack me up
