I'm a no voter on anything short of 35% snap up rate or the highest 757 rate of Delta or United - whichever is higher, and subsequent raises tied to the inflation rate. Oh, and the assumption is at min pay guarantee - not 108 TFP.
Full retro is assumed. Anything short of full retro is an automatic no. BTW... retro needs to include rate change as well as NEC and PS monies with no earnings cap like last time.
LTD/STD fixed to be industry leading and company covered. None of this imputed tax BS.
Full government rate per diem - not a percentage. Anything short of that, and the company needs to provide crew meals. The Big 3 get crew meals and per diem.
NEC brought up to industry standard and matched with the highest percentage offered at either Delta, United or American.
These are my non-negotiable items. Fall short of any of those, I won't bother even reading the rest before I vote NO. There are plenty of other improvements needed, but these are the meat and potatoes for me.
For those who think this is unreasonable, look at the pay at regionals and their raise percentages. Then look at this website and plug in your pay:

Remember last time, the union laid out how the company could easily afford to cover the entire Platform and remain highly profitable.
The company agreed with the union.... they just didn't want to pay that. Well, despite the price of electricity going up substantially, I can still afford to pay my electric bill and save money. While it doesn't mean I want to pay that much, I know if I don't, I'll be sitting in a dark house with no AC. #FUPM
