'09? '13? '17? Be honest, '13 was all about hitting the 200 number at the expense of pretty much everything else. And who voted the pension plan away? Wasn't that a self-inflicted voting in? |

I would ignore passer for now. We only have bullet points right now. The devil is in the details so hopefully we make sure all the small print is spot on. A lot of guys are making assumptions but really know nothing especially POG above

You missed the main point. AS voted the pension plan away for the NEW GUYS. If you look at Alaska’s contract from a senior pilots point of view it is rock solid. 41 days of vacation. Who cares about scope anyway. Industry leading retirement. Step trading actually works. It’s a whole nother contract.

Everyone on the property at the time was given a choice...A plan, freeze plus increase in 401k contributions or straight 401k with even larger contributions. Those were the choices. Straight 401k for new hires after a determined date. Yet you seem to think the people on the property made a NEGOTIATED for a clause to screw potential employees. Back in the days of the B-scale, I'd agree with you. On this topic you're WAY off base. |
Why the hell would you even WANT a DB plan? Any CEO can shed that at his leisure with a quick trip through the BK drive-thru. Unless you think the PBGC is going to pay out more than a 401K...

The rules have changed as American found out when they tried to shed the pension to the PBGC.

I don't care who sends the check every month as long as its the same every month. Now the guys who got raped were the DAL/UAL heavy guys who had an A plan that paid $8/$9K a month and got rolled into the PBGC at $4K a month. If I'm a young guy given a choice, I'd forgo the A plan and opt for a 13-15% 401k match every time. |
