Sounds "industry leading", by a mile.

And do the gains of waiting outweigh the immediate improvements?
I honestly dont know- Do you? Maybe gambling is what we should do-Im open to all ideas, but so should you hard NO voters.
The post you quoted didn't say vote NO, niether did the thread in general.

It's a thread because I've read many times dudes saying we got industry leading scope. Not the union, APC and bluepilots dudes.

Right, and we don't know what ours says...

so the title of the thread should be we don't know if we have industry leading scope?

We do know it's better than AK. Presumably better than AA, DAL, and UAL. So we're #2 maybe?

I've agreed probably #2.

To leapfrog SWA JB would pretty much have to cancel most of the existing long haul codeshare flying. You really think they would ever agree to that?

I haven't seen any press releases cancelling or warning investors that they may need to cancel their codesharing agreements or JetSuiteX?

Have you?

Or are we doing the unicorn Kate Beckinsale thing again?

😁

Just ask any yes voter.
I dont think you know what the word measured means Pog. You've been far away from it so far and have been angry. Anger is inhibiting your rationality. Good luck with that.

I realize that you must have extreme insecurities about your marketability as a professional pilot. This is why BJ hires so many unhireable pilots - they ALL talk just like you.



Are you too old? Are you too toxic to other airlines? Did you drink too much and get caught? Did you beat your wife too many times? Are you a brown-nosing CP or CP-in-training? There has to be some deeper underlying reason why your calculations make it too expensive for you to fight. You must have some kind of personal or professional weakness that makes you a liability to the team. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so quick to turn tail without fighting what a professional pilot is really worth.





This communique is for entertainment purposes only. It does not implicitly or explicitly acknowledge employment with any air carrier nor is any relationship implied. This communique does not represent the opinions or policies of ALPA or JB ALPA and does not represent the collective pilot group, ALPA, nor does it imply collective bargaining, advocacy, or workforce actions intended to disrupt operations.
The toxicity that you exude speaks to you're lack of objectivity, which indicates a suspension of patience and intellect. As Ive said to pog, good luck with that. Feel free to pm me back or text
Just remain open to facts.

Goes both ways.

Fact: our proposed 100-140 seat rates are SIGNIFICANTLY lower than peer average, and too low for major airline pilots. And its a quarter of our pilot group, likely larger if/when we make CS300 orders to replace some aging 320s
Fact: our proposed bus rate is at the low end of peer average, getting worse each year with below industry standard COLA increases. Especially for being a blended 321 rate.

Fact: PS is a joke, and only applies when the company is making profits, so should be an easy win for the company. If they are hurting financially, they don't pay us PS that year.

Those are the negatives. I acknowledge there are many good items in the AIP. But there are some negatives, some areas which just fall short, which HAVE to be looked at and acknowledged, even by the super excited, just happy to have an AIP almost automatic yes guys.
