Scope give is a non-starter for me no matter what the rest of the contract entails. Watching hundreds of RJs all over the system and seeing them on the ramp is watching mainline jobs be flown for substantially less rates. All those RJ guys would LOVE to fly those same planes or larger for our pay rates.
I'm ok not seeing significantly higher pay rates and focus on QOL improvements like vacation, sick time, healthcare, retirement, training and online pay, squeezing scope more among a myriad of other improvements.
