I am optimistic it will pass. But yes, starting pay HAS to increase from the current $40 or we will lose a lot of the most qualified potential candidates to our competition. Be patient, change is coming. Pair up DALDAL pay, and some better soft work rules , and our incredible attrition and we with be among (if not the) the most desired carrier to work at. We are just a little behind right now (due to our late merger compared to the others) but the gap is closing.

I agree and I too am hopeful but I also understand Parker doesn't have to do anything when it comes to the already agreed upon MOU pay rates. Also I highly DOUBT we get profit sharing, Parker does not want to give that up. I do think he'll agree to the rates but even at Delta +1% we'll end up being far being Delta in total compensation.

It's frustrating that the union is focusing so much on pay and less on regaining scope and soft pay/work rules. Go read some of those DAL threads, they are able to credit 150-230 hours a month. Even with pay parity they will still blow us out of the water. I'd much rather have more airplanes on property and better QOL/soft pay/work rules than getting another $10 or $20/hr.

Let's hope for new hires it's a Merry Christmas this year. |
I highly doubt doug will give anything early out of the kindness in his heart or due to good profits. Heck half the people say a jcba has to be within the MOU total costs and half the people say a jcba isn't tied to MOU costs. Nobody knows whats going on here :/

When it hits their performance goals and flights are cx'd because people are leaving then they will do something about it - maybe. |
