Kind of a low bar if you ask me.... don't get shiny keyed about certain aspects of their or any legacy contract for that matter. You want a nice crew meal in exchange for 5 day trips with 30 hour layovers in Bumfucville that includes redeyes, AM's and PM's in those 5 days? Like their ability to shift flying to their JV's and regionals? Like working 14-15 days off a month assuming no overlap? Don't let that A350 blind you to the rest....

350, 330 and 767-400 are the only "pure" Widebody categories we have.
What do I know, I'm just ER trash (757 and 767-300) who will never see a widebody Captain slot (hired at 39 in 2017)

I intend to go to a roadshow and listen to the negotiating team explain how they came to whatever the actual rates are, and why they think that was the best they can do.
Then, as I’ve said a hundred times, I’m going to dig into the rest of the contract to see the stuff that really matters.
Only then will I make a decision.

SWAPA is gearing up for some significant education on LCO. If you go to the union website contract q&a page, they have a really good breakdown on the data the SRC guys compiled that show how frequently the move up premium happens, and the math on why LCO is a better deal.
Yes, there will be times where you will end up with less after a move up with LCO. However, any time the reroute goes outside the original trip footprint the double time on those legs will add up quickly. That scenario happens way more frequently than a move up.
The real question is, how will the company adapt in order to minimize reroutes going forward?
