I liked reading the FA union response, recommending against taking this.
I hope TOTAL lack of participation from pilots encourages the company to engage with the Association to craft something suitable and detailed.
As much as I love our FA's, I could become one in 2-3 months. If they want as good of a deal as the pilots, then they need to do something that takes a decade of their lives to work towards with no guarantee. It seems like a great opportunity to bounce 1/3 of the senior mama's and papa's (don't forget the "theythey's) and replace them with some Guatemalans who would be glad to do it for $25k/yr, live 8 to a room in the US for half their lives, and the other half as very wealthy people in their home country.
Yes, I am completely heartless when it comes to senior FA's making as much as a 1st year FO, and more than some Captains at the Regional s.
