This us where the industry is failing its pilots. Everyone wants to be equal with the others or slightly better rather than say "we make this much for the company so we want to be compensated as such"
We are the most productive pilots in the world. Why limit our pay to what delta makes?

bravo!!!!!!

Maybe I missed it, but we've also got to fix STD/LTD/LOL premiums, pay and DEC while on those.

6 weeks of vacation is mandatory. My partner gets 6 weeks at DOH. Why we have to wait till 18 yrs is ridiculous.
I like release when back at base but we're point to point so I suggest release when back in A base.

Don’t forget this is the AA new AIP


Life Insurance
  • The Company shall provide eligible pilots with basic term life insurance coverage of $750,000. There is no age-related graduated scale.

I believe Delta is $950,000 that's provided free of charge...

If they did that here, they’d cancel the insurance once you went out on sick leave and it became apparent that you might need it. 🙄

I completely agree with all of your demands listed in the previous post to bring us up to The Big 3. That said, how likely do you think they are to agree to those without their fleet getting forcibly parked?

Prepare for a strike. It’s coming (unless we cave and accept garbage).

I’m ready. We’ve been putting my wife’s salary in the bank for six months. Let’s go. I could use the time off anyway.
