Following bankruptcy, C19 finally got inflation adjusted pay back to the high water mark of C2000 levels. I'm not interested in ever giving any of that hard-fought ground back.



Partially agree to an extent, at least for OOBWS. But again, the quid has to be huge. Like massively huge. They need a deal far worse that we do.



I once had a conversation with my WN neighbor. We were talking about GS and Rolling Thunder. He stopped me and said, "Wait, you get your days off back??" I replied, "you don't???"

I really don't care what other airlines do, I'm not interested in working my day off and get no day off back. Hard NO on ever giving back PB days. Reserve will absolutely suck (and yes, I know it's gone way downhill in recent months).
