The grid rules are what make NK's awesome schedule flexibility happen. It's hard fought and arbitrated language and would insanely foolish to give that up. Recall worthy as well.
There's no reason we can't keep all of that and have industry leading pay. JetBlue guys acting like they're going to sell NK's superior contract for standard pay is complete loserthink.
See its the "Superior Contract" thing I think we are growing disillusioned with. For years I have heard the drum beat that Spirit may have its problems, but that is contractual QOL is unmatched. The more we are learning about each others contracts and the other industry contracts the more I personally am finding that to not be the case. I guess if you are the type of person who wants to work as little as possible and have low credit months then Spirits contract is good, but other then that it just seems average if not deficient in some areas? The contract comparison guide was a fantastic resource.
