Frontier will look similar to Allegiant in terms of compensation when this all shakes out. Indigo isn’t going to negotiate in any meaningful way ever.
How do you know we will have "amazing leverage" 1-2yrs from now?? This industry can change with a snap of a finger. None of us have any clue where this economy or world will even be like in 1-2yrs. We need to take the best we can get now. Im not voting yes for mediocre stuff with the intention that we will get a great JCBA. We are all one event away from the music stopping and the games they are playing in Ukraine right now isn't giving me a tingly feeling. Or once this economy stops the hiring will come to a stop and that so called "leverage" goes out the window. I think we all need to fight for the best NOW, not a band-aid in hopes of something great that may never happen 1-2yrs from now. Ive been in this industry long enough, even 6 months is an eternity.
