Yes, I do expect to be getting paid as much as the leaders with this contract. If not, I will vote no and continue to try to leave.
Are you expecting to continue to be paid sub-par? You do know that JB can afford to pay us in line with the industry leaders, right? Why would our NC give us anything less?
First of all, I am trying to leave, CBA or not. I believe I deserve the best contract I can find. Although B6 can afford to pay industry leading pay for the 320/321, I highly doubt they will.
Id say DAL or UAL minus 3-5% pay, comparable reserve/work rules, mildly better health care than present and less than leading retirement.
What I deserve and what I expect are not congruent and although the NC are doing their best, the company will continue to lie and attempt to short-change the pilot group. Of course staffing issues could prove helpful.
Do you have faith in this company to provide "industry leading" anything? What do you base that on?
