Other airlines have a penalty such as additional pay or an extra day off. We have nothing except a drawn out process where the company (months or years later) eventually says “ok, we won’t do it again” and nothing happens. This is a critical item for the union to address in negotiations; otherwise, our contract has no teeth and there is no incentive to follow it, making all the negotiated items a moot point.

It is important to be aware of this. I encourage all pilots to submit a PDR to the union asking for this issue to be addressed.
