No offence mad, but I'd prefer to just have the extra money to buy my own tickets. The positive space tickets issued by the company after the merger are so restrictive on when and how you use them. Only a few available seats on each flight and they book up months in advance. I'd also like the option to fly on other carriers where my full fare ticket is treated as any other full fare paying customer. Employee ps tickets during irops would fall so far down in the priority list.
Just my 2 cents. I'd prefer we focus on compensation and work rule improvements in c2015. No doubt ALPA and management will over inflate the cost associated with any other bonuses.
