Every other airline that has raised pay in this round has done so at the expense of FO bonuses. This raise was about Captain pay (which has been way WAY out of whack for a long time).

Of course it was FOs with less than a year on property that I ran into complaining we weren’t getting raises because the union was asking for too much and said they were actively complaining to their reps. I bet these guys would have loved to have some new reserve rules.

But that’s asking too much.
