Thanks for all the input. Make sure you encourage the other 16999+ too. Ridiculous that you think you can't share but that's your choice to make.

 

ALV, that's it thanks. Every time I think Im getting close to understanding this whole thing, I'm reminded that Im nowhere near.

 

Going to work is getting in the way of making money.

 

Unintended consequences for the company: many pilots will no longer be flying ALV+ as it effectively eliminates them from receiving premium pay as GS is all but dead. Less trips will go covered, more trips will go premium, and the company will be paying out even more. We are now incentivized to fly less.

 

If you can get anyone on the phone in time to fly it. In the mean time may pilots are getting screwed.

 

This is not good, except for the senior farmers.

A5S

 

get rid of auto accept. It’s not that hard.

 

invest in automation and start coverage in a timely manner to comply with the agreement you entered into, it’s not that difficult

proffers and auto accept were part and parcel

or, rescind the agreement and return to the original condition

2 hours pay each and every occurrence for everyone

Not our problem to solve. You can’t just say you will do something and then refuse and blame others when you fail to uphold your part of the agreement. That’s called acting in BAD faith.

 

Someone's gotta pick up senior's trips so they can sit at home and collect free money. They are welcome for my service 🫡

 

Sure and they can give us:

1. PS commuting
2. Commuting language to protect the drivers and train riders
3. Improved Health Care (ours sucks)
4. First Class DH with only option to roll back to C+ (regardless of time of booking)
5. No middle seat DH
6. Lower priced FCFL
7. Ability to select pilot meals
8. Make fatigue "calls" automated
9. Paid Parking (for all pilots)
10. Uniform Allowance to include dry cleaning
11. Make hats optional
12. Provide us an option to wear a coat in winter that actually works
13. Pilots get +4 S2 passes over non-cons
14. Automate CS processes for coverage
15. Vacation time = ADG
16. All training pay = ADG
17. Guard rails on GFB (needs teeth)
18. Permanently eliminate sick look back
19. More vacation weeks available in the May-Aug timeframes
20. If it's on the no APD use days = holiday pay

and on and on and on. And finally, it's their issue to solve, not ours. And if we are going to "help" them solve it, then we need to extract as much benefit for the pilot group as possible. We'll see how bad they want it.
