Disturbing? yup. Surprising? not one bit. Do you think we would get full retro after 4.5 years in the box? Certainly ain't gonna happen with anything approaching a 14% (or hopefully more) pay increase. That 14.65% is about 3% per year compounded over those 4.5 years of negotiations. Is this a good deal?

How do we beat that with equipment pay?

That logic can go both ways. For instance, FO's and LCA trip drops. Slippery slope. Hopefully, we find a path everyone can walk

Then, just to keep it fair, we would of course run a huge -rebid- of all those categories, so the junior guys who already have bid up, or have had to commute to get 777 pay, but have been stuck on reserve or flying the crappiest schedules, can bid back down to where they would be senior enough to get off reserve and fly all the best A330 and 767ER layovers, maybe in their home bases too!
Be careful what you ask for, there will be unforeseen consequences if we go to full pay banding.

Hey how about we take the monthly pilot payroll and just deposit it all in one account.....and then divide it up by the total umber of pilots.... and send everyone the same check?
