I am paying only about $50 less a month in premiums for the Gold HSA at Delta versus for that PPO plan at my regional. Not even a close comparison. I was spoiled beyond belief with that great plan.
Edit: after the quick math you proposed, it was $5000 cheaper at my regional for a kid. Bottom line, we have room for great improvement in our plans.

No. Just premiums. The Gold HSA here is $348/mo. The $0 deductible and co-insurance plan there was about $400/mo for a family. Also, it had DAILY chiropractic maintenance visits for just a $15 co-pay per visit. I think I miss that the most.
Again, really no comparison. We sorely lack in healthcare plans. As I've stated way above, this is my number one item next contract cycle. If we can't secure lower premiums and higher coverage. We at least need more funding from the company.
To be clear, don't take any of this to suggest I'd rather be back there. Just pointing out that better does exist and I hope we can make gains going forward.

As a military retiree I [for the moment] have pretty great healthcare. There are quite a few of us at DL.
Consequently healthcare isnt a super high contract priority for me. I concede that I may be shortsighted on this. What changes do your foresee that would motivate this chunk of our pilot group?

With a statement like that, I hope you have experience with narcotics. If you do then you didn't use a good one.
.....just couldn't resist!
