I cannot fathom why any pilot would give up (for the whole JFK pilot group) limo/DH pay, plus provided transportation, for EWR trips. This is one of the few areas where we have it better than the other majors. I’d be good with EWR as it’s own base. But a co-base? Hard no. Thank God you are in the minority on this. If the union gives this away, I am going to be irate.
Yeah, a 1.5 hour train ride, or $140 round trip uber from kew each time you are called should make all the commuters happy.

Knowing this group it will be given away for a uniform allowance increase. I mean the company can just do it anyway right?
