How about seat lock pay raises. Every year beyond 2 years a pilot gets a 5000 incentive per year to stay in the seat. If this stops 2000 pilots from changing seats it's 10,000,000 instead of 2000 times 20,000 per seat change to train someone costing the company 40,000,000( i don't know the actual numbers). Less pilots in training would be productivity gains as well. This would eliminate to small changes like md88 to a320.

Many ways to get raises if we find a few incentives. again a win-win.

I'm sure there are a few more areas we could find incentive base raises with productivity for the company.

This would be a much better approach than selling scope, QOL, seniority, and SL.

Just ideas, trying to think out of the box.
