I'm not saying that's unreasonable or unfair. I think it's both reasonable and fair. The question is how do we negotiate that in an environment where Envoy is losing planes to a PSA who entered into predatory bargaining, and endeavor took pay cuts with a gun to their heads. We are currently the industry leaders in compensation. (Yes, Hou757, I said COMPENSATION not "PAY" since you don't seem to understand the difference).
Well that's just the problem. Until ALL regional pilots stand united to demand higher pay and compensation, then we won't have the leverage to do that. Until the ability of the mainline carriers to whipsaw other regional airlines, which there are too many of, is taken away, we don't have the leverage.
