I agree 100% please look beyond the little pay raise. We need to send a clear message. GLA is going bye bye soon, I believe we're next and if it comes to that so be it, enough is enough.

RUN, do not walk to another company. Sounds like the union wants you to drink the kool aid with this LOA. They want you to think 18-20 days straight on RSV is a better way to spend time with your family. Unreal. It's a pilots market and everyone is hiring

Holy ****! This conference call is a joke! Now I'm convinced the union is in bed with management! Not all union reps but... At least it's up for vote but they're really force feeding it.

Fool we gotta vote YES so we can get 60% growth like PSA! And then we can go to other airlines forum and try to poach their pilots with these dumb concessions & don't forget the 60% growth.

Don't fall for the "if you don't accept this, we're filing bankruptcy" crap!! Every airline threatens that at contract negotiations time. They jusy want see how close the vote is and how much to sweeten the deal. If its voted down by a small margin, like 55% No, then they only have to throw you a few little scraps. But if its voted down by like 95%, then you're sending management a clear message that the TA is horse crap.
