In 2.5yrs retirement will be 15% but maybe theres goes to 20% i dont know. If it stay at 16% not much difference there. To make up for drastic pay decrease as a FO for 5yrs i dont think profit sharing does that much. The only thing is i have no clue what profit sharing actually comes out to. I dont want people to chase the shinny carrot. I know like many people that cargo is not the same and pays for lifestyle/rep. To call cargo rates Legacy pay is ridiculous and surprised no one called him out on it lol. A FO leaving makes sense but a CA doesn't and i hope in 2 contracts Fo pay will come close to Legacy so people wont mind being longtime FO's so we can get to +6000 pilots
Don't think profit sharing does much? Seriously? A second year FO at delta gets over 20k a year in profit sharing alone. Captains make 50+ in profit sharing a year.
