Obviously we aren't getting full retro. I don't know why we are even talking about that?

And to those who seemed shocked and surprised that "we didn't even get our ask", I question if you know what the word negotiate means? I can hardly believe what I've read in the last few pages. Of course we didn't get our initial ask. That's not how negotiations work. Do you remember the companies first proposal?? Remember that peach? It had two separate pay scales. One for actual flight hours and one for non flight hours (rig, vacation, training, any soft time). And the second pay scale had zero raise at all! Topped out captain 166 an hour. And if I remember correctly, the flight hour scale topped at $200 or $220.

Our union negotiated from that to our current TA.

If you want to argue about our ask, you should argue that the initial ask was too low. We ended up not far below our ask.
