Apparently, reading for comprehension isn't your strong suit. There are all kinds of Union contracts out there. Some pay more (SWA), some pay less (Spirit).

However, all are negotiated, agreed to and ratified by their respective memberships. What sticks in my craw is the non-Union types who accept employment at low wages/no benefits. Then they come around and ask Union pilots for Union negotiated benefits (jumpseats).

Is that a simple enough explanation for you?
