No argument from me. I've been here for more than 20 years and this is the best non-pay improvements I've seen in a contract.
I think that the best way to handle this is through liberal use of PP. For those that want to work, plenty of additional money. For those that want to fly less, the schedules are built more reasonably.
I used to pick up a decent amount of PP. I'm not going to pick up extra flying at straight pay. The company needs to figure out that one size doesn't fit all and use more PP for those that are willing to work additional hours.
Totally agree. At least where I'm at, I can see it working. PP trips don't even make it to 75% before people snap them right up so it's clear there's a crew willing to give up all their free time to get paid.
