Can Delta or United pilots get two months off in a row paid. Every year. We call it IMAX.
Are you flying over 85 hours on reserve?
Can United and Delta pilots drop down to Zero hours?
Do United or Delta wide body First Officers go unqualified every three months for lack of landings? Great deal.
Are United or Delta pilots getting $200,000 for unused sick time?
There is a tremendous amount of nonsense spewed all around. Some contracts are better than others in different areas. Cherry picking certain items from a contract is easy. Unless you are actually working and living a contract you don’t know. Envy and jealousy are no good for you. I would put my career at AA up against any other airline career of a person hired the same day I was.
The entitled generation is strong amongst us. I’ll give you a trophy for your so superior contract if that makes you happier. Good Grief.
Nailed it.
How many 18 month DAL/UAL folks were gone from home 150 hours in July and got paid 125? No sick, no vacation, just using the available tools. I’m guessing not many.
We absolutely need to use examples from other airlines for negotiating with our management. Don’t conflate that with jealousy.
