So we'll see. One thing is for sure, communications and a broad amount of things are a 1000% improvement from the last trash we were getting that a few were more than happy to not only accept, but even defend here.
unfortunately the ship sailed on industry leading. When your direct competitor and closest peer airline is furloughing pilots - not the best time to ask for legacy rates plus $1.
Andrew and his cronies screwed us, we should have gotten an AIP on rates when we had all the leverage instead of moaning about union business for 11 months.
