5:15 vacation and training day. -Training day is a possibility, but the math supporting vacation favors company position. 4 weeks of vacation = 1 month of pay/credit. I would prefer increasing total vacation value with more weeks. /Shields up/ - What if we negotiated more vacation, but allowed selling back/working the additional weeks? /Shields down/
6 hour min day -This will be a huge lesson in the Law of Unintended Consequences. I can already hear "We didn't think they would do that!"
19% MBCBP DOS - Please Please Please NO mandatory MBCBP. Inflation will DESTROY the value of the account. Increase the company DC and give us a CHOICE on what to do.
22% MBCBP at $1 billion profit
25% MBCBP at $2 billion profit
Large deadhead improvements -Agreed. Sitting center seat coach is more fatiguing than working the flight.
Crew meals -Serious question - Have you eaten a crew meal lately? On my last few ocean crossings the cockpit crews have eaten less than 25% of the crew meals. The ones we did eat were out of boredom. Let's come up with a food option that doesn't require eating "airplane food". Do you really want the company and the FAs in charge of your nutrition? How about building additional ground time into the trip before long flights so we can get our own food?
Optional hats and Northface jackets. -Yes on the hats. Does Northface make a jacket without a logo? IMHO, displaying a prominent logo on a company uniform is tacky. At that point, we might as well monetize the opportunity and sell uniform sponsorships.
