My number 1 criticism of DALPA is their lack of stated goals.
Goals send a message. RA now has a goal of 30 gates in SEA. Anyone betting against him?
To achieve a "historic" C2015 DALPA will need to far exceed $1 billion in increases date of signing. What I am proposing is a rock solid minimum for a yes vote from the line pilots.
The truth is, we hold all the power if we choose to use it.
$500 to $600 million for date of signing hourly rate increase. This allows for 2004 hourly rates plus some accounting for what we have lost to inflation.
$400 to $500 million for work rules, retirement, medical, per diem, etc.
Let's send a message loud and clear.
