I'd also add a few things that United has that we could literally copy and paste from their contract:
1. Deadhead policy (to include fixing our horrible surface deadheading between co-terminals)
2. Vacation accrual schedule
3. Crew meals
4. Only SLIs (no DPS instructors)
Some things American has we could copy and paste:
1. Commute policy
2. Sick if needed on reserve
Yes, agree our DH, and other stuff you mentioned above all needs improvement. I didn't want to rehash all the survey. Talking to some of my friends about this I think most of us are going to be, surprisingly, on the same page about the stuff that's been mentioned here on this thread.
I don't mind DPS instructors, but they need to be prior Delta as a minimum and should be limited to at most the 200 series. The 300/400 series should all be SLI folks.
