That's a very common perk for union leadership, and not limited to the regionals.
IMO each union should have a no-compete clause for top-three officials... can't work for company in any capacity other than line pilot for ten years after leaving a union position. Maybe an exception for loss of medical, but even that's a slippery slope since it's not hard to lose your medical if you want to.
