So of course their DOS will be 2023 and DOS+1 and +2 will be 1 yr further than ours - such is what happens when you get. A new contract one calendar year before others! How is this an argument?



“Same men who locked in rates below market NOW.”

Angry 18% continue being angry. There was no new market until the AS deal was signed. As for your last question, ask the ALPA EFA team. That’s what your dues are for. You had nothing before, zero scope, zilch, nada. This 3 yr package is close to 1 billion dollars in improvements.


If you want Delta pay now, go to airline apps and apply away. Speak with your feet like the ~370 pilots have this year. If not, then there’s no point whining now after a new deal was signed. Give it a rest until the start of the next round of negotiations. It’s counter productive and all you do is raise the blood pressure for no reason. You’re gonna get 17% 401K soon, 318 or higher Sept 1 2023 and definitely more than 331/hr for Sept 2024. It’s gonna work out fine.
