I agree 100%. Lots of things that cost money, and some that are require no money, but are just insurance.

Can we still bank? I have never been able to bank before, but now with the increased reserve guarantee I am wondering if I can. How do I do this?

Delta should do what we do here at Pinnacle, offer the hotel but allow the pilot to opt out and save the company half the money, and the pilot gets paid for half his/her living expenses.
Pinnacle has single occupancy hotel paid for by the company on day one of training as well as positive space home on the weekends.
