So have I.

Don't mean to pile on golfandfly... I flew for an airline which thanks to ALPA's hard sell on "how awesome it would be", voted in PBS. It DECIMATED our QOL. Absolutely destroyed it, from senior to junior alike. I then flew for another airline which had pilots and flight attendants on line bidding (like we have). Then there was a vote for PBS. FA's went for it, pilots said no way. Well, we saw the absolute destruction of the FA's QOL. We used to fly the whole month together with the same schedule. Them going to PBS and us staying on line bidding was the clearest way to compare and contrast the absolute destruction of QOL that PBS brings to airline schedules (mostly for the mid to very senior). The pain it inflicted was not only on vacation and training months, it was every single month. I hope you're kidding golfandfly, PBS would be far worse for us than the most updated optimizer. Please, wake up and realize how it would destroy our QOL before spreading your point of view on being open to being bought out for PBS.
