Again, retirement is ok IF YOU RETIRE AT 65. If you retire early pleas do some math on how much the company saves by providing ZERO HEALTH INSURANCE to a married couple aged 55-64. Literally ALL our peers get coverage during this period. We do not. Below standard.
A commuting Pilot who complies with the requirements of this Section
shall not be subject to discipline based on missed commute unless there is evidence that the miscommutes are the result of inadequate planning by the Pilot.
Personally, I'm glad the spelled out what could happen in the event your plans have gone poorly. That way there are no surprises should you have to deal with this.
But that said, it's simple. comply and you shall not be disciplined.
Youre right there's no early retirement benefit. This is not market rate. however, I suppose if you want to retire early that's on you. If you've planned that well to retire at 55, you've probably planned for your health care as well. Not worth voting no on imo. There are more benefits to lock in than this in this TA.
