I think tempered expectations were the desired response. I expect some standard and some above standard stuff.
I just doubt the NC would settle after this much time invested. But who knows. Tomorrow will be interesting between AIP details and possible company announcement. Probably not coincidenCS, but lets not LingeR on this.

Market rate has been the term they’ve used for years now. If they used “industry leading contract” people would be mad when we had a dollar less an hour than someone. Market rate will be industry leading in areas and probably also behind in some areas. We shall see.

I have faith in the NC. The MEC passed it unanimously. That’s a big deal.

Kinda weak language.

Expecting a sales job, only positive bullet points. My bet is lower payscales than the legacy 320 pilots by a few bucks.

A month from now when everyone has descided to vote yes the full doc will be published with all the "gotchas".

Then, we will pass a substandard contract.

*Sigh*

Have you not been reading the union emails? They've almost always stated that we are looking for a "market rate" contract. Always. Why is this such a shock to you?

Maybe...

Has BJ ever screwed us over? Many times.

Has a NC or MEC ever screwed its members? Many times.

Why would anyone have a logical reason to blindly trust?

Vote NO to substandard contracts! Accept no compromises. If we can't win now, we never will.
