Unless we end up being paid significantly more than our competitors when this contract cycle is complete, I don’t ever plan to go above and beyond what our competitor pilots provide. We’re hired to be pilots - let’s focus on flying the airplane safely from point A to point B. The marketing department can pay me an extra premium if they want me to wear a hat and stick around for 20 minutes at the end of each flight saying goodbye to the passengers. None of our competitors’ pilots do this, nor should we.
