It would be hard to not vote yes on this TA. The negotiations committee provided a lot of quality of life improvements. There will always be more that we want to improve in any contract but we can work on those lesser ticket items in the next couple of years.

If there are problems with the TA, the time to address them is NOW, not after ratifying it. And there are problems with it. How will we ever get a contract we're actually proud of if we accept something that's only 80% of the way there and always punt the last 20% to "the next couple of years?"

But sadly that’s not the Alaskan way and hasn’t been for the last 90 years.

Shyguy and Knockknock,
I'm not trying to be an A$$, but you two need to call a rep and have them explain exactly how the pay average works for the "Snap up."
However, to ease your minds a little......Knockknock, it only applies to new contracts that have been implemented and does not look at old lower rates ever.
Shyguy, I think you are a little misled on how some of those scenarios play out in case 1-5.
Everyone call a rep with questions that need that much detailed explaining.
Head bashing against wall

Like I said… “it’s not perfect”, this will pass. I’ve yet to talk face to face with a NO. That said the bug seems to be the retro pay and all individual’s I’ve spoken with have gotten over that single item and look at the package as a rather good TA.
