Smile UPS questions!

First of all, congrats on the new contract.

I am going to be making a tough decision here and need major input. Can someone answer any or all of these questions?

1. What is a typical monthly schedule (does cargo move on weekends or holidays?)

2. I understand new FOs in current hiring cycle can expect ANC-- is this true?

3. Is it easy to manipulate schedule, i.e. pick up and drop trips?

4. Does anyone know if the pension is "fully funded". I hear there is a big difference between a fully funded pension and one that is not. What does A/B 1%/12% mean? Not familiar with pensions, could someone explain?

5. This may sound stupid (if I haven't already sounded so) but it seems that FedEx/UPS pilots stay in really nice hotels (okay, compared to SWA-- most layovers, not all, aren't that great).

Thanks in advance for your time on this!

Signed,
Happy to have this "Problem"
