Would you prefer a higher hourly wage so that you can purchase your own policy outside United? Or perhaps a UAL “sponsored” insurance option that was pretax?
To go onto LTD is a massive pay cut. I realize your never going to recover 100% of what you’d normally earn, but it shouldn’t be a massive pay cut to be on LTD. I’d much prefer DAL’s LTD. With 8 1/2 years to go (my highest earning years for retirement) a DAL type LTD is much more preferable for many of us punching out in the next ten years.
