Plus, many things are based on your yearly earnings. Take LTD for example. It's 60% of your best 12 months in the last 36 (reduces to 50% of that after 24 months). You don't plan on being out early on LTD, but if you are then it's nice to have some financial advantages. I've seen odd things happen to folks at an early age and they always wish they done more to be better prepared for the unplanned events.

As with anything there's a happy medium. Don't want to work yourself into a Heart Attack, but also want to be prepared for some odd ball LTD triggering event.
That sounds like an awesome LTD program. Is there a monthly premium and does it go until you’re 65?

The LTD is company paid and yes it goes until age 65. There are also optional supplemental plans offered by the union that are worth considering.

It's interesting to go back and read this thread as it progressed over the last year.

This thread just started a month ago. The one you are referencing is down the list further. That one was started by someone in January of 2020 or end of 2019. To say that some were short sided then would be an understatement. Many of those common names that complained all the time are now radio silent as they realize how good they have it and how good our CBA is. We definitely need some improvements, but as a whole this job is leaps and bounds above the pax world. W2, retirements, benefits, vacation, career progression, etc. I lived the pax major life prior and I can tell you its an apples vs oranges comparison.......
