And, by my estimate, 80% of B6 pilots will happily vote to be last in their peer set. They were happy to sell scope for 3%, so I guess it’s not a surprise though.
One of the biggest reason the MEC/NC wanted us to vote yes to LOA17 was because it would separate us from Alaska (i.e. remove them from our peer set). Now, we are voluntarily putting them right back in our peer set and dragging the future snap ups down. Since that profit sharing money doesn’t count for the snap up, they will continue making more money than us with lower rates.
