Cut costs somewhere else.

The SILs are PLOAs that pay 2/3 of a months salary while owing zero obligation to the company....just like the company granted thousands of similar PLOAs to the noncons.... for zero pay.
Surely you see the difference?
Nevertheless the company should have offered the SILs for May. It was a huge mistake not to. Surely in all that Delta public relations world they could have spun it well enough (and truthfully enough) to placate the noncons. We don't have to be in their face (no need to yell "get a union!") but something as simple as "we made a deal with the pilots on extreme short notice, our fleet complexity and FAA requirements make a comparison between pilots and others groups impossible, we'll reassess in a month, blah blah" would have gone a long way. The fact the company didn't even try, and didn't get any metrics (and we are a data obsessed company, normally) is troubling.

Has anyone else seen the Youtube video from yesterday where DALPA reps talk about COVID-19 and management hiding the numbers and telling pilots not to inform crews they've worked with?
