The answer is clearly no. And as long as our “sister” company seems content to work under their 2009 concessionary contract indefinitely it’s probably not gonna change.

*Business class travel...>8hrs segment..hmm how many times will we use that one?......NO
*Hotel accommodations layovers >8 hrs ...again won't be utilized....NO
*Per Diem rates....I like to eat healthy and good, this does not come close....NO
*Retirement....NO CHANGES capped by IRS not ATI...NO
*Recorded Data Protections?....Needs greater claification
*And last but certainly not least ....NO SIGNING BONUS ...WTFFF..NOOOO

***please help me understand again why this is good so I can vote yes. although it is a fair starting point it is very weak overall and we are leaving way too much on the table. please chime in luv to hear others views
