I came here for the flexibility. I turned down interviews at legacies because qol is more important to me than money. Keeping (hopefully improving) our flexibility is worth giving up money. Lots of money is useless if you aren’t able to be home with those you care about it. We should be able to get our pay rates real close to the legacies and keep the qol, but either way we need qol
if flexibility is so good, why do we have the attrition rate we have?

We must protect our QOL/flexibility while achieving pay rates in the ballpark of the legacies to stem attrition

Drop/swap is necessary. I’m a no voter if we lose that as well. But keeping it with subpar rates are gonna mean the same thing for our future - we won’t grow at all.

It could only be denied 4 (2 of 4 are even) of 30 days las captain for September right now and 2 of the next 6 for august. And las is a mess right now. That’s nowhere near most of the time. Stop trying to give away provisions please.

Exactly right. Pilots need to stop worrying about the companies job to staff and grow.

I don’t believe they want us to give it up. I’m fairly confident they want to tie it to res coverage. Right now it’s not outside 48 hrs. Your res coverage is not my problem when trade/drop/swap. That is the most important provision to keeping the grid clean on most days. Especially during meltdowns where a ton of res are used. It’s a provision that most carriers don’t have. Most are tied to a res grid.
