If some pilots want a ETO option vs flying garbage rigged trips for 16-17 off, I think it’s the union’s job to negotiate for all pilots. I’d hope that the quality of lines would improve with a smaller headcount, but they’d prob just reduce a few rsv/blank lines instead. I’d rather everyone get another 1-3 days off a month with green bars and make the trips better…

I do not see why SWAPA does not want zero pay lines. I would think all the pilots who clear their board every month , would like those lines. (predicated on being able to pick up.)
Can someone chime in why it's not a good idea.
If the answer is due to green bars, and why not give the zero lines a GB average .

If you can get the same thing at half guarantee (for example), why not try for that first? If that fails, then we can discuss zero pay lines.

Zero pay lines are divisive at this airline. Most guys would use them to game the system and build their own schedule.
If they want true zero pay pilots, offer LOAs. Done.
ETO is dumb in this case. Sorry, it just is. This is a temporary setback, not the end of days.

This is such BS. Let's pay a few lucky people 50% for sitting on their butts, while everyone else gets crappy paying 12-15 day lines without a green bar. Uh nope. Not interested. Too bad SNAPA doesn't care what the unwashed masses think.

They did say they want input. If they are sincere or not, I'm not sure, but they want to hear from the masses.
