AA will be at 310 an hour in less than 5 years... and they got that in bankruptcy. We're highly profitable and we got 4-8-3-3. That's some bull honky.

Well hey, feel free to buy one of us a beer next time since you know our outsourcedness contributes so much to that RASM premium you enjoy. By the way I thought your profit sharing was based on net income? How is it that uncle Hulas is able to produce net income with "those arrjays" but Uncle Dick isn't? Won't happen, i know, so it's a moot point, really. Are you suggesting that Delta could operate the aircraft more profitably than Pinnacle or GoJets? |

What % of their domestic flying can be codeshare flying done by JetBlue and Alaska? And look at their NB pay. Much lower then ours. Looks like they sold their NB guys out.

The fact is that they got that in bankruptcy... pay raises.

Someone earlier said that our union politics would change when we hire more regional guys...Not if their frame of reference is "wow, this is so much better than my regional." Unfortunately, when this contract got voted in, the Delta pilots said "yup, this is the new normal." The regional guys, myself included, bring with us a healthy fear of bad decision making and awful management. We find a sustainable business model is much more pleasant to work under. This was my first DAL contract. It was better than the previous. The new normal is a better contract every amendable date. Your normal is your fault. Not mine. |
