I too heard from a little birdie there would be significant improvements with a major announcement by year’s end. Unfortunately it turned out to be false according to the grapevine. Still no dedicated sick days...who wants to use very limited vacation to make up for sick days? If one don’t have vacation pay that will just encourage pilots showing up for work sick because they can’t afford to call in and not get paid. Next still no improvements on go home day. Apparently many still getting home after 9pm consistently. Pilot qol involves more then pay is what the company still doesn’t understand. Like someone else mentioned in this thread long ago the company is still very sales oriented....gotta make an extra $100 on a wheels up trip etc... Finally any flight beginning or ending between 2200 to 0600 local is based on takeoff and landing times for bonus pay and still no improvement in that arena. First of all shouldn’t it be based on block out and in times or better yet duty on and off time? Secondly it’s sort of a rip off if you leave eastern time and land at 2130 central when it really should be 2230 eastern. So because of that discrepancy crews miss out bonus pay.
