To me, the snap up provision is the most important. We are not getting Delta, ever, much less their 22% retroactive pay.
If you want Delta rates, I’m afraid you’re going to have to wear a double breasted suit and a hat…..and kiss seniority and QOL buh-bye. If you’re under 40-ish, it’s a no brainer, maybe. But for the rest of us who are in it for the long haul, I hope we will be rational in our expectations and votes.
You are comical. Other than not getting retro bc we aren’t past our amendable date, much of what you said is complete BS. Alaska’s work rules for the most part are garbage but deltas are not at all. If you think they are I think you need to read both of our contracts side by side and get a reality check.
