UPS has a 12% B Fund. That’d be my guess.

Might as well go for 13%. That would pattern bargain off UPS and also come darn close to maxing our the B Fund up to the $57K limit based off the $285K cap. Assuming you put in the $19.5K limit. So many limits!

I agree with pattern bargaining and getting more than 12%. But 20% would max it out. Thirteen is not that close to that, in my opinion but definitely better than not getting any increase.

20% B fund means you hit $57k all with company money if you make $285k. Don’t need to put in 19.5k of your own $. We won’t get there in one contract but we can grow the B fund 11% before you really don’t see an increase in benefit for those making more than the cap.

Keep the A plan. Raise if you can.
Raise the B plan as fast as you can. Shoot for 20% some day.
VB stinks.

How about Fedex funds all of our retirement banks each year. If you make over X amount, you get the extra cash over cap. That way, not one dollar of our regular pay has to be diverted to our saving. As for the X amount, I say 50% of first year pay!

That’s essentially what a 20% B fund with cash over cap does.

Default Survey Glitch

Possible Survey software glitch.... I have emailed ALPA and posted on JetFlyers.

Pass the word.

I think there is a glitch in the survey. I have saved and exited twice. Using the proper link to return to the survey I noticed that some of my answers had changed. Any question that required a drag and drop to rank the importance of a category had defaulted to its original order. The order I had put them in did not save. As I said, I tried twice and both times my answers didn’t save completely. When I first returned, all of those questions had changed. The second time two of them were wrong. Check you answers prior to final submission.

I thought the same thing but its your browser. It only logs what you submitted. What you see when you log back in or refresh doesn't matter.

So you are saying it’s not a glitch but a feature?
