Sorry if I gave you the wrong impression. I never said I agreed with this "pennies" pay raise. With all the doom in 2008 and gloom for 2009, no fleet growth advertised for SWA, I am frankly surprised that
any airline is offering pay raises...
Seems like the current economy is a managements dream excuse to cancel any and all raises for airline pilots.
