Variable, like everything else. UAL 5 years ago . . . 95% 12 years longevity so everyone reaches max pay. UAL in 5 years . . . half at 12 years.
Management today just wants costs they can account for in a 5 year plan, and they want a product that is superiour to other carriers. We are in an incredible moment for our careers. We are NOT the target. In fact, we are part of the solution.
