"New pay rates are not in effect until you "sign a contract" for, and are being "paid" at said rates!

Until then, blah blah blah........

Looks like you guys got a decent pay deal here. I just hope me and my fellow Airtran pilots financial future is as good as yours appears to be now. I am getting tired of "setting the bar" on the lowest side of pilot pay scales when our company is making millions of dollars. As an example your 8 yr 320 FO's, which is where I am on our narrow body aircraft, now make $20.00 per hour more than us. Our pay sucks.

Hell your 8 yr 190 FO's are scheduled $10.00 more than us.......

I hope that there are substantial enhancements in these sections. Your "new" payrates will be less than Delta's on the A320 family as of January 1 ($161.20), and unless you get annual increases will fall farther behind. Your current retirement contribution lags Delta's by 7% ($10 per hour). I like the night pay and the night duty rig alot! The rest seems pretty industry average for a profitable company, especially in comparison to LUV's TA.

Can you explain the amount of time you get and how your PTO system works when using sick or vacation? Our disability plan pays 50% of "full" pay until FAA retirement age whenever you can't use your medical certificate (24 month exception for "mental/nervous" conditions).

Thanks!

Does that mean there are those that didn't? If so, what do they do - reject the TA and negotiate more? Strike? No, really, what happens with them?

Also, how does your 2:1 duty rig work?
