Other perks of the contract are just as important , if not more, than a reasonable pay scale they are offering. No one is asking for the unimaginable. We do not deserve anything less than what our counterparts have or will have at other comparable outfits. Otherwise we are selling ourselves and the rest of the pilot group short.
Another dishonest post by the union crowd...
This contract is not only a pay increase...
It is a
* huge jump in 401k (70%)
*increase in guarantee
* decrease number of work days (or xtra pay)
*Biz Travel
*30% increase in per diem
*better insurance
*direct routing on deadhead
*increase day off pay override
You want to argue against, that's fine but be honest in your depiction of the offer.
