Sounded to me like the 30 yr reference was just an example of what they could plug into the model, now that they have built it, to see what it would cost FDX.
Having said that...going to 30 yrs at 2% would be a 20% increase in our A-plan benefits. Of course, it would only benefit those that can get more than 25 years. And, it would give yet another incentive to stay until 65.
But, it would certainly be better than the A-plan gains that were approved by this group in the TA, one year ago.
