I really don't care about the company's feelings and am willing to hold their feet to the fire, but let's be real, some battles are worth fighting and some aren't. Give us actual DH rules, give us C+ and no middle seat, even if it's last second, give us a pay penalty otherwise. They can keep FC. I don't need the extra orange juice on my DH for ATL to IND.
Again, as someone whose 6 of 13 legs this month were DHs.
*I care about the FAs, but when it comes to pilot negotiations, they're pilot negotiations.
You should be subject to a DH transcon in the middle seat in row 34 then. I think you'll change your tune. Doesn't matter what you think, It's what the larger pilot group thinks,and personally I vehemently disagree with you on this and the polling data does as well. Our DH language sucks. Period. It needs to be improved upon.
