One person mentioned $1,900/pilot. That’s sad. But I’m looking more for history etc.
28 million is again a meaningless number until the company provides their table positions for the pay, scheduling, retirement and vacation sections which contain 90% of the direct dollar value of the contract.
Our opener I understand was about a 2.0 to 2.5 billion ask but the union has not put out a number.
The union continuing to throw out the 28 million number is somewhat insulting as they are implying pilots are not very smart. What they should have said is the company has stopped all negotiations without providing table positions on sections x,x,x,x.
