Sure the pilots share is a third or 117 million but along with all these other goodies this is cost neutral!
By 1 JAN 17 the base pay plus DC will be up almost 19%. There is at least another 2% in additional soft money and it's probably higher.(increased vacation and training, shortcall pay, vacation to PD, new reroute rules ect.)
That total 12 months past the amendable date will be somewhere in the 450 million range.
