It was mentioned as a concept so I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s been discussed internally.

An organization has to consider all possible options and the value of a contract extension has to be evaluated.

It might not be a bad idea to get some quick gains locked up in a 2 year extension. Many economists are predicting a recession starting late 2019/early 2020.

If the economy tanks the odds of us getting bogged down in a protracted contract dispute are high.

Dude, you’ve crossed the line into delusional territory. Do you just make this crap up or are you really that brainwashed by your PHL/Clt reps?

Not only will ACD be implemented, it will also improve our schedules and result in us having industry leading trip and duty rigs.

You need to stop listening to certain reps with agendas that have nothing to do with facts....and maybe start thanking Dan and those hard working APA volunteers who brought you these improvements.

Back to the OP topic. So, if we get industry leading hotel language, profit sharing, LTD and STD fixes, for a two year extension, I’d say it would pass in a New Jersey minute.

You guys are forgetting a big hole in our contract. Scheduling practices and specifically recovery obligation. One of the biggest reasons there are delta pilots making 50, 60k+ in a month is that they are not obligated to be on reserve if their trip cancels or is bought by training. Then they can pick up premium on top of those pay protected days. Speaking of training they should be forced to buy line trips from pilots and not be allowed to pull trips out of PBS.
