You will live under whatever this contract is for 10+ years I would bet. Don't vote on it as a "first contract". The market is in your favor on both pilot supply and pay. United Airbus pilots make $245 today and $258 in two years with a 16% DC. They will snap up to delta if delta beats them (incredible language to get). They and AA open again in 2019.
$205 is gonna look pretty crappy when you see $300 at the legacies in 2020 not to mention all the other contract language.
Pretty sure the guys at the table would not have signed off on $205....they've said time and again they're not going to sign a T/A that will get rejected. Top C/A of $205 would be overwhelmimgly voted down imo.
