Almost all post 911 concessionary contract amendments (LOAs) had snapback clauses. US Airways pilots did not, although the AFA (F/As) did have snapback language in their LOA. The East pilots got a 35 million dollar (split among the East pilots) payment in lieu of snapbacks.
So 35 million divided by 3000 pilots is a little more than 10 grand apiece. I'd say the company came out ahead on that deal.
If they took 35 million as a settlement, what is the basis of their claim to recind LOA 93?
