What does this mean? At Frontier, we can move reserve days around...sort of.

I'm pretty sure a lot of yes-voters are actually dissappointed and would have liked a larger step considering the powerful leverage our strike action gave us.
It is inappropriate to brag about a great accomplishment. We got a long ways to go.

I doubt that many, if any, people commenting on here have any experience actually working in the nego process. It ain't as easy as it appears on the internet.

Most of us were hopeful that the DOS pay would be much higher. I was not, however, willing to vote for an agreement that traded my 4 days off or pref bidding for a large pay increase. Given that the pay comes up to where I wanted it to be over the life of the contract, AND I get to keep those QOL protections, I would say the NC did their jobs well. Our new contract doesn't provide us with instant satisfaction, but I think we end up at DOS+4 with one of the best CBA's in the industry.
