Per diem only for days off.
lines that will supposedly be uncommutable meaning no large blocks to travel or site see.
One bid month could equal 35 days. (or does the contract still have the 6 week bid month possibility)
Doesn't equal real senior to me.

Thus the utterly ridiculous notion that somehow voting FOR the LOA and then "just not bidding it" will somehow empower the pilots with more leverage.

Seats will be filled eventually, that is why there is no logic in the vote yes but don't bid it argument.

What different does it make if they are new hires? The seats will get filled.

If we vote it down, they open the FDAs anyway, no one bids it, the only way they'll get you there is by SIBA (IMO, much better deal than STV).
Is that correct, Brown...?
