Price Is Right comment drew me in. 63/27 yes. Other 10% didn't know how to use their IPADs to vote . 18% apathy, no vote at all.
I am a no vote. I may, or may not know, but what I know, I know; and no is the correct vote for us.

Everybody seems to assume it'll pass. Even those people who are voting no "to send a message". Same thing happened with the F/A vote so I predict a repeat... fail by 16 votes.

You are right. 70% would be an indication that Jerry Glass failed.. By giving too much.

Fails by 17 votes, proves pilots are slightly dumber than FA's.

My guess is fail 52-48%, 85% voting.

But, I'm still holding out hope that I'm wrong. Voted yes, but will still get up and face the day on Saturday, regardless of the outcome...

At Delta our last contract passed 62-38.

But that was for a 3 1/2 year contract which expires this year.
Six years seems too long. You'd be better voting no on this and at least getting the average of us and UAL on Jan. 1. We'll probably get a nice raise on our next contract if your vote fails. Otherwise we will have a ceiling limited by your pay.

If it fails: We will most likely convert a portion of our profit sharing to pay - a more guaranteed income. This would make our rates higher along with a regular raise not tied to profit sharing thus increasing your pay. I think we'd get at least 25% over 4 years.

If your contract passes - let's be honest. Delta will say our total pay, which includes profit sharing is already greater than your pay. They won't give us much of a raise.

Industry pay will stagnate for the next 5 years with 3% raises as our company's make $10B a year.
