What's the pay rate difference between a narrow body and a wide body?
This TA is aimed at reducing required staffing, certainly in the F/O ranks, so before you get all giddy about that 8%, look a few A/E's into the future and see if you want to be stuck on that MD88 or 737 a few more years, NOT dropping LCA trips.

Yup.
Increasing vacation pay, but NOT vacation credit is a perfect example of that.
