Company contribution to retirement has to get a lot better to get a yes from me. 5% from me to get 4% from the company is not going to cut it.
The union is holding a webinar/conference call or something today to go over this I believe. I'm curious how far apart we are.
Explain to me how the "FO rates aren't bad". If I did my math correctly the 12 year FO rate is $111 per hour on band three. Which would mean band one rate would be approx. $101 per hour. All FO's at Allegiant should see those rates as a slap in the face. Why can't the most profitable company in the US afford Southwest rates, Delta rates, United rates, American rates, etc...?
