We should never lower the bar in pay rates no matter anything else. That would not be good for us or the rest of the industry. Even ual ceo thinks so.

That’s not to downplay the significance work rule improvements they negotiated though:

Me too clause
per diem tied to government rate
holiday pay
improved scope
increased dc
reroute 150% day one 200% thereafter
no doctor note
reduced insurance premiums
paid maternity/paternity leave
