While one can debate the merit of that and the rest, it amounts to 21.5% compounded over 3 years. Know anyone in your neighborhood getting that deal? I certainly wouldn't be crying about it too loud.
That also would represent the top contract in the industry. Not good enough though. Really, nothing rational will meet the APC standard.
Clowns like you are comparing this (rumored) deal to AA pay rates as some sort of achievement? Dude, AA had a bankrupt contract rammed down their throat, wait a minute, shoved up their arse worse than a Ned Beatty canoe trip and nobody had the balls to let Burt Reynolds dispense justice with a hunting bow.
I'm AA and am embarrassed for you.
Yes, I will call you Caitlyn from now on. You earned it.
