Our (Yours, mine..) own Union posted on numerous Social Media platforms today -

The proposal on the table is not industry leading and continues to lag our peers in some key areas. While a gulf still exists, the Company is rowing in our direction. We encourage them to continue rowing!

Are they “rowing in our direction”?! Sounds like it. But at what speed?
Keep in mind what our CEO has said on numerous occasions-

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby said the tentative contract between competitor Delta Air Lines and its pilots will help all major carriers "get deals done on the same terms."

We can get a deal done in 2 weeks


We will be the best Airline, with the best Contract and pilots will want to come here and be jealous if they aren’t*


It was 13 May 2022 that they (company/union) announced a deal. It was 24 Jun that it was sent out to the pilot group with a rush vote (to end on 15 Jul).

Our past union leadership (won’t say his name or nickname, don’t want another harassment complaint from him to HR!) really screwed this pilot group.
It was partly our fault as we didn’t hold him and them to the fire.
The latest Blastmail from a council is just making sure we DO hold our union accountable just as they should be holding the company (and especially our CEO) accountable.

Enough is Enough

*paraphrasing.. was said while at Charm School, but the audience was NewHires and new Captains. 12 July 22, I was in the audience!
