This Is How I Earn My A-Plan & More
According to the latest FCIF, though the CDC raised the warning to level 3 in China, “Essential Travel Only” we are considered essential employees, so business as usual.
Please don't touch my A Plan. If you can’t improve, get profit sharing and/or an increase B-Plan. But leave my retirement alone.
BTW have anybody other than the HK based pilots used their medical in a foreign country? If so how was the experience and how was the coverage?

I also don't believe that any crewmember who gets sick from this virus should have to burn sick bank; more like workman's comp. I realize it doesn't really matter what I think, but I do believe that ALPA should be pushing that option. I hope Diablo (DJ) is working that one.
Im not sure what restrictions are placed on when they must return though.
