Pay issues:
We should be looking at 12 yr CA at $250 ish. Why? Everybody is saying we are stuck with this for 10 years.

As for days off; there is not much info available from the profiles on this site. But, think about this: if MG is allowed to give us 6 single days off, how will your schedule look with even 4 single days off?

It will be a show time of 5:00am Sunday; a subsequent end time of 10:00pm Monday. Tuesday (1 day) off; then a show time of 5:00am Wednesday. Remember; you probably went to sleep at or after midnight on Monday, and due to legality of 117; you will need to be in bed by 7:00pm on your single day off to be rested for your 5:00am show time. Simply repeat this process for a 10:00pm end time Friday, in bed by 7:00pm Saturday, for your 5:00am show time again on Sunday.

The reality is, AAY flys nearly 7 days per week now. I know not a full schedule, but we are in contract negotiations. We should be making the schedule system work for the pilots. We should not accept single days off. No Single days off and minimum days off of 12-13 regardless of what month it is should be our demand if this is a 10 year agreement! In addition, as for those who are just looking at a pay rate; if we have 12-13 days off, and no single days off; I am certain there will be plenty of opportunity for those who desire it, to pick up open time for a pay boost. Those of us who desire time off, will be just as happy to stay home.
As for now; from what we are bantering about; I vote NO.
