Umm.. no.

I have less days off than I did at a regional. Also making quite a bit less money. Not on probation year anymore either which shows how crappy our contract really is. Second year anniversary = second year pay? Nope. Not at AA.

Not to mention now I get to work on scheduled days off for free up until NOON on RSV with zero penalty for them doing this. Lovely.

Could my prior regional just move my days off (2 moveable days)? No. All my days off were "Golden". As they should be.

If my regional did fly me into a day off for unavoidable circumstances I actually got a RETURN DAY OFF and junior man pay guarantee. AA you basically get a stick in the eye and no return day off they stole from you.

RO? Lol

Coverage days basically everyday?

Premium only 1.5??? Then sick later.. Uh oh.. What a joke.

Which brings up how you can't even call in sick for just one day of a trip even if you are only sick for one day of a trip.. you have to dump the whole thing and lose all your sick time. WTF? What regional does this?

Could continue on and on with our trash scheduling section vs a regional for several more pages but anyone that came from a regional recently already has realized this stuff by now..

Our vacation bidding, post award schedule adjustment and PBS system is probably the worst in the entire US airline industry.

This contract is total garbage for a LEGACY carrier. People at the regionals were expecting improvements moving up to AA not a sub regional contract with higher pay rates. The sad part is our leadership seems to be totally ignorant to the fact that even regionals now have better work rules than we do. I've brought it up in emails, conference calls and they just blow it off like it isn't even real. Well, maybe the out of touch widebody leadership should have listened to the junior pilots because that's how they got themselves voted out and will continue to be replaced if they keep ignoring the rapidly growing population of below the line pilots not willing to accept another garbage "pay rate" contract ignoring narrowbody QOL issues.

Some of the people here are so delusional that they think they are making 4X what a regional CA makes. Ha.. Maybe at Delta they are but not at AA.. Highly doubt more than about .001% of people here are making 450-500K+ unless they have zero life. When I left a regional over a year ago there was an offer to START at an AA wholly owned regional as a street hire CA and make 120K FIRST YR with bonus. Far more than a 1st yr pilot at American makes. That is at AA's own wholly owned regional paying more for a 1st year pilot than a 1st year pilot at mainline!! This is not a joke or exaggeration, it's Pathetic this is allowed. APA leadership is oblivious to it/and or don't care.
