I agree that offering them a remote position (if qualified) at that pay (ie, reservation agent) is about the only reasonable accommodation that works for pilots.
I wonder how long before the balance of those pilots included in the 2,000 total employees are removed from the pilot seniority list.
“reasonable accommodation” doesn’t require the employee (pilot) to fill same job position or require company to use pilot pay scales… they’ll probably be offered call center positions that stay at home or unpaid leave. There has to be a pilot on here that has been approved… bueller?
