I mean it's unscrupulous, but the wording says it's an fo bonus that goes away when you upgrade. The fact that you'll be forced to upgrade isn't mentioned so it's irrelevant.
Recruiters don't lie, they just play up the parts they want you to see while not mentioning the details that would spoil the lovely picture they're painting.

To your second point, there's no mention of forced upgrade on the hiring site, just (and I quote) "$20,000 bonus on your one-year anniversary" right above the face of the American Airlines president.
And to be clear, I'm not accusing recruiters of lying, but I think whoever is signing off on the information put on the company hiring page is being intentionally misleading.

I have a question regarding the Holiday Pay agreement. I understand you have to fly the same number and subset of days to be complaint with the language during the holiday period otherwise it is forfeited. My question is, if I picked up an opentime trip from “TB” trade board will I be owed holiday pay still? I understand in the non holiday period this would not get me SDO pay override however in the language of the holiday agreement it seems as if you pick up flying time/duty days as long as they meet the minimum number scheduled during the period and the subset of originally scheduled footprint of the calendar days then you’re ok. I want to pick up a trip but it is off the trade board and I’m not doing it without holiday pay.
Thanks.
Thanks.
