BUT . . .
real politik will rule the day and no amount of inflation or whatever will matter. What matters is what has happened in the recent past, and the only gauge is the Alaska contract so that is what we can expect at Delta, United, and American. Alaska + a tiny thing. What does that mean? It means a 20 to 25% pay raise and no QOL gives and a few tiny QOL gains. Alaska voted like 78 or something close to 80% yes, I think . . . going from memory here.
We will need a lot more than what Alaska got to get over 50%....we need to start working on getting released 2 years down the road so we can shut this thing down and get a real pay raise with real retro and only quality of life enhancements. If anyone thinks we are going to get anything worth a yes vote in 2023 they are naive...
