Do you guys get travel benefits with other carriers, like American?

Specifically, ID-90 or similar? Can those fares be used for the whole family?

Thanks

Anyone know how negotiations are going? Without getting my head ripped off, does anyone think pay might go up a bit for FOs under a new contract?

At Miami Air?!?!? Damn! coffee on my screen and keyboard again. If your definition of a bit is $0.25, then yes there is a chance.

However with I would not count on any support from the D/O or others who were members of the original Mickey Mouse Club in 93.

CASS is great, just curious if there is a deal (id90s) to take along spouse/family?

You get 10 guaranteed days off, plus 2 "Optional" days off. Optional means the company can buy them back or shift those 2 days at will. But the 10 "Guaranteed" days off are yours. Those are often, but not always, in a single 10-day block.

Bid packages have some lines of known flying and many lines with some or all reserve (called "standby" here.) However, the flying is so fluid as new business gets added as the month goes on, that all schedules are subject to change. Best advise is to simply bid for the guaranteed days off you want, and then fly where they send you.
