1. If we get pay parity now (2015), what happens if UAL and DAL get a new contract after the 2015 pay parity, do we get an additional pay parity?
2. Is the 2016 pay parity rates already locked in (the ones in the MOU summary), or would a 2015 Delta pay increase bump the rates up?
3. Why no pay parity for group I pay? 16.29% increase isn't enough
1. Depends on what they negotiate to get early (2015) parity. Probably would be the only parity review, but it would come down to what is negotiated in the future, so no firm answer can be given now.
2. The rates are not locked in, which is why the MOU calls them estimates. They are based on the actual rates in effect at DL and UA as of 1/1/2016 on A320/B737 aircraft.
3. All groups will get the same percentage pay raise in the current parity plan, so Group I gets the same percentage as II, III, and IV. The percentage will be decided by comparing weighted averages of DL/UA A320/B737 rates, then applied to each group at AA. I believe this had one additional clause that the raise would not bring any group above the rate in effect at UA/DL for that aircraft.
