Just as one example since apparently people are actually considering voting yes to this trash heap, Silver Airways has 20 turboprops that don’t say United, American or DHL on the side…. They also have more vacation days, 12 days min off a month, 4 hour min/day, a duty rig, 100% deadhead pay, upgrade and longevity bonuses, better per diem and better pay. Just one example. Seriously, don’t get blue-pilled by the union on this one, do your own homework before you vote.
This at the bare minimum should’ve been addressed.

Get your 1,000 hours and GTFO in this hiring market. Never have I seen so many people go right seat to right seat at major carriers. For those of you who are going to be calling YV home for the future vote this down. The new hires will thank you. If you accept that TA you’re telling the company they can walk over you.

I for one believe this is a very generous contract. While MESA didn’t give us above industry pay standards, they moved us directly in line with the other regionals. In a time when they don’t have to give us anything, they gave us a whopping pay raise! With us also securing a deal with United Aviate this makes MESA the place to be for aspiring aviators for years to come

The top CA rate only increases 8%. Inflation is presently at 11% and rising. That’s a -3% pay decrease for the top CA rate. And you call that generous? I guess that’s because you don’t get to negative numbers until 8th grade math so next year you’ll finally understand.

Seriously what are the negotiators smoking. “We think this is a good deal.”? 80% of people are on the value a/b plans anyway. Right, maybe because they can’t afford literally 100% of their paychecks going to healthcare?? Pretty sure it’s not because they think getting to go to the doctor 5 times a year and going bankrupt if they get sick is a good deal! Wow.

I don’t know if they’re on the take or just got completely bamboozled, and I’m not sure which is worse. Either way we got totally outclassed at the table. The fact they they’re advertising the iPad stipend for an item we have to buy as part of the per diem is mind boggling. If you see a rep please tell them to take an adult with them the next time they buy a car.

Pronouns
Pilots/we/us/they/it should take a look at the stock skyrocketing above $3 word has leaked to the public of this amazing contract and our long future of ferrying Jets to the desert.
Let’s hurry and approve this before the MEC (managements elected cronies) arms get to tired of patting themselves on the back for changing some pronouns and fancy mathing an iPad stipend as a raise.
