Those other employees with the exception of the flight attendants also work about 20 days a month for far less then pilots get paid. It’s not normal at almost any company to pay highly compensated employees holiday pay.
I would also discuss with the flight attendants how they get holiday pay. Hint: They don’t get it for the entire rotation in most cases unless it’s a turn.
