A uniform allowance should be a must as well. As mentioned before, many other/smaller airlines do this. Not to mention all the other legacies such as United, AF, Lufthansa etc.... Heck, my previous carrier even provided me with shoes.
I realize that there are more important issues such as scope, CQ pay, Health care, etc.. but I'd be glad to see those improvements as well in the next contract.
As long as Haggar continues making the “cool 18” expandable waistline paints, I’m ok with the $25 bucks a year a shell out for uniform items!
They’ll be even better if we get crew meals!
