A ratifiable deal that fixes trip coverage will come with a heavy cost. Signing this expensive deal will be an admission by RG that his decisions in the name of efficiency and cost control over the last 8 years were mistakes. His ego won’t allow that. So they will just try to hire their way out of the mess while blaming the pilots.
Someone correct me if I’m wrong.

From my understanding, even if they have 100 guys sitting SC for every trip that pops open they’re still going to skip OOBWS to assign a trip to a SC. So they’re going to have to pay 100% of the trip for every reserve assignment instead of it being free. I just don’t see how they are ok doing this until the end of time.

23.N (> 18 hrs): SC is before OOBWS
23.O (<18 hrs): OOBWS is before SC

They need to end the feeding frenzy. They need to make people scared to drop trips to the reserve limit for the gamble of premium. The only way i see this is if they plus up reserves and actually reduce the flying for a couple months. Even now there are categories starting june 2nd with only 20-40% of reserves available. Its ridiculous.

Post covid you used to WS to hit the GS trigger, but now with QS, that incentive is gone.
Everything is set up to reward people who drop their entire schedule (QS, 23m7, IA, etc). No wonder they are preposting reserve rest. It would be an even bigger s show without if they didn’t stem more drops.

i can’t comprehend how the C-suite and BoD is allowing RG/HT to blow $10M+ per
month on 23M7 while our operation simultaneously tanks, with no solutions in sight. Truly baffling.

I really really really wish I was a fly on the wall the moment they realize that hiring all these "expensive pilots" doesn't solve the 23M7 issues.

$10M? According to HT it's more than double that. What was it, $23M or $27M? Something like that. That only amplifies your point.
