Like I said, don’t have it in TFP, so took hourly rates and guarantee from APC.



(doesn’t matter what it’s based on if it isn’t guaranteed)

I hope more people will realize in this next contract that guarantee is the number that matters! If the past year didn't make that crystal clear, I'm not sure what else will.

Another regular Tuesday and premium going out left and right and trips sitting in VPF status. 35 TFP three day not good enough anymore? I remember when 20 people would bid on overnight turns worth 3 TFP...

I managed to snag a 44TFP 4 day while on vacation and over the cap(literally the last in the bid order)!! Couldn’t believe no one else would want it.

This guy gets it! Thank you Sir!

Guarantee + staffing triggers

Instead, we have many that are focused on Barcoloungers in the lounges, widebody hangar daydreams, and paid parking for the win! Yes Yes, and give me another Yes!

Paid parking, uniforms, dry cleaning and 16% are industry standard plus a few others. Why shouldn’t we get those? I talked until blue in the face with the 84s about 88 as the only thing guaranteed. It was futile. Plus our lousy benefits. Industry lagging is what SWAPA does. We will never raise the bar with this pilot group. When I was hired we were the highest paid by default.

This weekend is going to be completely off the hook open time wise. All bases, over the cap, on vacation, whatever. There will be JAs.
I am on vacation and I may even dip my toe in if the trip is right and my wife is annoyed enough with me.
