FDX ALPA failed to not only match actual Delta payrates ratified months earlier in full-term contract TA, they came 3.5% short of adjusting their current payrate for inflation at DOS.
But hey, that's really neither here nor there...FDX ALPA is negotiating an eventual TA2, and the IPA is now negotiating a future Contract 202x. Here's to hoping both pilot groups can give their leaders/negotiators the support necessary to attain industry-leading agreements that pattern off the passenger contracts ratfied in 2023.
Not disputing that, however, you conveniantly left out that IPA presented you with a second contract extension in 2022. Your 2020 pay rate adjusted for inflation in June of 2022 would have been $384. The industry leading extension that you approved in 2022 had a September 2023 pay rate of $375, which is below your inflation adjusted pay rate from 2020 a year later.
It's nice of you to point to fedex to justify your problems, however it isn't new. UPS has blamed Fedex for their rates before, even though UPS had their TA first. Funny how it only works one way.
I'll leave the last word for you Brosef. I,,, actually mean it.
