Score, right?

Well. I volunteer for YOUR Union. Actually.

So no. Not the CPO. And 2. Or D. If you have hang ups don't throw them on me, maaaan.

Seriously. I'm just helping out. And this is on my own time. I have never and will never work in a CPO office. And unless someone begs me (will never happen) I'll never be an elected rep.

Word!!!!!!

And I haven't been NYC based in awhile. LGA and JFK doable. EWR, 100 bucks and 2 hours to get to where your trips (really) start.

Personally, I'm not so sure about this. I find it hard to believe they'd stoop THAT low.

Maybe floated to have anything better than this crap look like a win.
If true, any rep who votes yes for these increases needs to be recalled immediately.

"The worlds greatest airline contract"

Not my words.

Use this as the standard from which to judge.

It's a pain. I agree.

The categories I have been based on up there EWR was typically covered by the N. PA dudes. So it worked out. I really think a reasonable thing is to have ground trans paid for by the company.

Which it kinda is. We have space a on the crew runner. Anyway. I agree EWR kinda isn't sorta all that really if you think about it hard and deeply all things considered very good.

But the la airports are way way worse.

Indeed. I'm sure there are those higher up that love the fact that we keep floating these rumors of paltry pay gains and give backs. Ludicrous. New rumor: 20-8-8, three year agreement. NO concessions. NO change to PS. Then I might consider it.

I heard this is true but we all get 2000 Delta dollars to use anywhere but CA, NY, FL, HI and international so that's a yes from me.

I think the reps would want the details to "leak".
If the line pilots aren't allowed to provide input to our reps then the seven days are pretty much pointless.

Must be a good TA for the company to want to get it done this early. Otherwise they could sit back and just save it. Time value of money and everything.

Hmmmmm...wonder why they wanted to get it done so early? If it's because they just care about us and want a cooperative environment then I guess we'll see a minimum of restoration on date of signing without having to pay for it with a cut to PS or scope cave. If we don't see that then I would hope the average DL pilot would be more than a bit suspicious as to their motivation.

Im gonna have to use the time honored tradition of PATTERN BARGAINING and just use a simple formula:

1.2 billion profit = 4,8,3,3
4.5-6.0 billion profit = BETTER, BE, FLIPPING, BIG
