this and we’re already working far harder than other pilots on those day trips. 2-4 legs (versus a single transcon), constant mx and other operational issues here that simply do not exist at other airlines (eg uncontrolled airports, circle to land in the mountains), etc. anything less than other narrow body operators in all areas of the contract is a non starter. Not to mention higher paying widebody rates are not an option here and our upgrade times are longer.
