I get it that it might be viewed as a concession, but as others have said, it’s a temporary deal (7 months), those 2 extra days off are worth more than the 5 hours and it will affect only pilots on reserve, which is about 20% of the pilot group here. It’s just leveling the field so everyone, lineholders and reserves, get paid the same 70 hours.

There is less flying for everyone right now and this codeshare will hopefully bring more flying for both of us.
