No. You clearly came here in an inflammatory manner. And have clearly been excited to respond to every single post since your first telling us that we can't do as well as you.
I will however play along. I can't remember if it was United or AA but when they agreed to their new contract the CEO was on CNBC and when asked how they would pay for the huge pat raises he just shrugged and said "we will pass the cost along to the customer. It will have no impact on our margins"
And he was right. That's how business works. And it's how Frontier will do it as well. Our ticket prices will go up. That's the answer to your question. Fortunately for us, even if our ticket prices have to go up $20, we can still dramatically undercut Delta on cost. Pilot pay is only a small part of our CASM savings compared to our competitors.
As a fellow union pilot, you should want us to do well and you clearly don't. I know you said you do, but its obvious you don't. And it's sad and misinformed. We are an industry together, and we build off of eachothers contract progress. What's good for Delta pilots is good for us and vice versa. You don't know what's good for you. You just want to see us do worse and you want to see more people junior to you at Delta. Nice.
Don't come here telling us to aim lower. That's being the worst kind of fellow union brother. It's up to Frontier to figure out how to raise revenue, not for you to come tell us to settle for less pay. Hard to believe any fellow would do that.
This pilot either has no clue or is a lambert intern. It’s called a proposal not a demand. Does delta demand their pilots are available via acars for reassignment or tied to a res grid? No it was in the proposal. Waste of time engaging with whoever that was.
