ENJOY...



Total value of this TA year one: $360M plus or minus a few million.
Total value of years two and three, respectively: Close to $450M
8/6/3/3. Yep, that's it. Not so fast. It's actually 8/0.25/3/3
5.75% reduction in PS starting 1/1/2016. That is why year two is less than 1/4 of 1%. A 50% reduction in PS between $2.5B and $6B. Yep, only 10% up to $6B.
Vacation goes from 3:30 to 3:45, but 3:30 credit only
Training pay goes from 3:45 to 4:00.
Per-Diem. A whopping 10 cent increase. WoooHooo!
DC increase of 1% starting in 2017. Yep, no typo. only 1% and starting 1/1/17
MORE RJ concessions
HUGE reduction in ability for FO's to bid instructor lines.
Draconian concessions in sick leave. You get 14 days [un-verified] per year and a rolling 3-year look-back. We give up our HIPAA rights. Delta will demand your FAA 8500 form. Worse of all is now many pilots will be coming to work sick, and getting the rest us sick. Oh, Joy!
Best of all. This will be a COST NEUTRAL deal for Delta. Funded by changes in PS and unilaterally screwing the other 70,000 Delta employees out of their PS by the same metric as used in our TA.
