I will predict zero retro for 2020,2021. Then 8% retro to Jan 1 2022. 18% effective Jan 1 2023, then 5% for 2024, 5% 2025. Total compounded 40.5%. Hmm, pretty good relative to the full retro case above don’t you think?
Full retro is weak hill to choose to die on. The concept is meaningless because its definition is fluid and changes from pilot to pilot. Total value is all that matters.

When I do the inflation math on my lost wages to the official cpi, I’m due 50-60k approx. So call it whatever they want, make us whole. Company is still held liable via their wallet and at the end of the day that’s all that matters. Just my 2 cents. Flame suit on.
I hope you don't retire in 2027, 2-3 years post amenable date, while everyone remaining is hoping for a big bump in 2028 in lieu of fair retro to the amenable date.

My guess is we get the retro, but the company needs to save face with the BOD / shareholders / other non union work groups and make it look like we aren't getting this huge "raise" when Uncle Sugar was paying the wages.
The 18 months of PSP will be called something else...bonus, one time pay adjustment...something other than "retro"....that way Ed can stand up on TV and say something along the lines of "we only paid retro back to COVID recovery"
Whatever it's called, every pilot that worked even one day since the amenable date needs to be paid for their work!
