posted from another crewmember...
9% pay raise-- Later pay raises through other changes(assumes 1000 CH/yr)
Bump in rec tng pay +.6% B Fund +1.0%
TAFB rig Change 3.75/1 +6.7% Int Overide +1.2%
Total raise after all "kicks" in about a year No Int Flying +8.3%
All Int Flying +9.4%
Add the 9% + 3%(after Year1) + 8.3% = 20.3%
+9.4 = 21.4%
OKAY before It gets pointed out I know hubturn in MEM will not see the rig change bump.
Priority MU now 125%
Better disruption pay kick-in
SMALL Per diem increase
Bid for recurrent tng slots
Min layover 10:15
ANCHOR ZONE for scdeduling Read it it's complicated but BETTER than today!!
Critical Duty period block-in by 1000 LBT for out-n-back
Blended duty requirement--GOOD
Op receive less 11hrs crew rest after critical duty then next rest is 12
Sick trips in open time available for p/u between 0700-1000 Can now see all open trips--no blackout
Medical certs $275/yr instead of $200. This effects most Captains not FOs
Bid line adjust window now 48 hrs Other things are better during this period.
Can now PDO bump a reserve crewmember assighned a trip
New reserve periods A+ and B+ We'll put this in the neutral to negative column.
Union shop Positive----Former non-members exempt--BIG Negative
Much better medical insurance than current Jan 08
Better retirement medical benefits including some sort of medical savings account--read the TA for details
ALOT of enhancements to scheduling parameters. I don't understand how much they will change things but it will be for the BETTER

Obviously ALPA wanted it and possibly we got it at the cost of something else.(Was it worth it? good , bad it depends on your opinion). But don't try twist it. It cost the company ZERO!!!

I don't think it was free. Did it cost MPPD, 6.4CH for a hubturn, Real RETRO pay... or maybe one of the other things we didn't get.

We got it in lieu of something else. Whether it is worth it or not is certainly in the eyes of the beholder. It is an important issue IMHO but I can't wait to attend a road show.
My point (before it got twisted by a few folks) was it was something we got........that cost the Company absolutely Nothing thats zero,
unlike a Pay raise or B-plan bump from DOS or Real Retro or retiree heathcare for everyone, not just the folks retiring under this contract. That costs the Company something.
