Did all the red flag trips get picked up yesterday or did they have to cancel last minute for no crew?
THAT is what will convince Mana Air to raise pay and attract more crew. Not firey emails from the union or demands.
Once the pilot group is weighted to new hires versus 12-20 year pilots, the company can offer a retroactive raise in exchange for a benefit the lifers like. Like the healthcare.

All XJT ALPA is doing with this rhetoric is proving that when consolidation does eventually force itself on United XJT will not be part of the plan. Maybe they will “staple” our seniority list to the bottom of Commutair’s.

I agree though, United will announce more 175s in lieu of contract concessions. Gotta keep the new hires coming!!
