Polling
 
If you have nothing else to write in the last question on the poll, asking if you have anything else you want to say to the NC, please consider the following:

In the event that the company decides to implement assigned seating, add “no middle seats” on deadheads, or a financial disincentive to assigned middle seats on deadheads to the CBA. It is an easy no-cost thing to add now, but may be difficult to obtain if we wait until they make that change.

thats a good idea. If for some reason this happens a fatigue call after sitting in a middle seat for x hrs will fix the problem pretty quick.
my old company would try and DH us on the JS. That didnt last long.

I agree. You don’t know when you might need a fat sick bank. They’re asking me to sell that insurance. No chance unless LTD 100% covers lost earnings plus NEC.

I need that sick bank for vacation, time off, mental health etc.

I figure most people will. But if someone was going to leave that blank, I thought the middle seats thing is better than nothing at all.

Medical freedom.

Two pilots per flight even if the damn thing doesn't have flight controls.

Don’t you already have dh must be window or aisle? If so consider premium if you end up in a middle. It can happen with last min bookings even with that language so might as well make them pay. We have that at f9 and got the premium on you with if we ended up with a C boarding pass. I should mention I believe there’s been a loa with a carveout specifically for swa flights but can’t remember exactly what it says now? It’s not C boarding anymore.
