It can also only be triggered every 18 months. The company can grant additional raises between now and Sep of 16 and a review is not triggered.

 

Heh....

Post of the day. Well played sir, well played.

Out of curiosity did anyone ever do a comparison of pay of C2012 vs no C2012 to date was?

 

Ummmmm the only group that is even remotely talking about unionizing are the FAs, and the group that was trying to do so recently punted. I don't believe there is anything on the visible horizon, so do you really want to hang your hat on that?

 

Wait a minute... before you go asking for verification we want to know if you have a good faith basis for your request. Posters get up to 100 posts per calendar year while on sick before you can ask for verification unless you have a "good faith basis".

He has offered "other proof of posting" and if you don't like it you can pay him for a visit to get a moderators certificate.

 

Bender,

Are you a line pilot at Delta Air Lines?

It's a simple question. I don't want to know your name. Just curious about your profession.

 

I don't want to hang my hat on anything. I want a TA that we can all vote for, a TA that lacks a bunch of concessions.

But if it is lacking - no rush. If we don't get the pay bumps which as a few pointed out might not happen, we still should be looking at major profit sharing increases.

Anyway - I want to be able to vote yes. I voted yes on C-2012 because it met my minimums. Well with record profits and a recently announced $5 Billion stock buyback my minimums are a lot higher.

I will look at the deal as a whole and make a decision as I expect most will do.

Why any concessions? Improvements or status quo in all sections. Do you think Delta's Board of Directors in the compensation committee are going to ask RA for a single concession in his contract? No, he's going to be backing a Brink's truck up to the G.O. on Virginia Ave.

Call or write your reps now and tell them, no concessions!

 

Not only are RA, Ed and the rest of the boys at the top NOT going to grant ANY concessions to themselves, they are also increasing the dividend by 50%! Remember, THEY own hundreds of thousands of shares of Delta Stock, so in effect, they just gave themselves a 50% raise!

But we can't even hope for 2004 pay rates, that would just be 'unreasonable', right?

And while were on that subject, just exactly WHERE did the Billions Delta is making now, come from?

In LOA's 46 and 51 combined, the Delta (south) pilots gave the company roughly $1.3 Billion per year in concessions, many of which are still in effect today (pay rate cuts and PBS manning efficiencies to name just two)

And the Delta Pilot DB plan was underfunded by a little over $4Billlion when the company flushed it.

So add those two events (pay cuts and DB funding) for the past 11 years and what do you get?

HUGE Profits!

So what are they going to do with all of OUR money?

Pat yourselves on the back boys, that's YOUR money they took 11 years ago, and continue to take every two weeks. Now they are going to use it to buy back $6 Billion in stock and pay themselves a 50% increase in dividends!

 

Scoop speaks for me as well. Precisely what I'm looking for.
