Not defending the company in any way shape or form... but we've been negotiating sick time accrual for the last 2.5 years? As far as I know we only began negotiations on that section during our sessions last week. Is the company dragging their feet? Probably. But I can't see a single section taking years to complete. Not during mediation anyways.

PBS is a concession, are we in a concessionary negotiating environment?
I say NO WAY to PBS.
No give backs. If they wanted give backs on our work rules, they should have played nicely from Day 1.
We have seen zero respect from NK corporate towards our pilot group, it's time we vote for a strike.
Full Retro or shut it down.

Let's face it, PBS would be a disaster, for the company. They would go out and find the cheapest software provider possible. Our PBS would come from an internet start up in Bangladesh. On day 1 of implementation it would crash and our whole operation would come to a screeching hault. This is the same company that can't distribute a PowerPoint to its pilots on the NEO differences.

The company's strategy is to drag negotiations until we become increasingly frustrated and give up our contract, and QOL, for "industry standard" pay.
The point made about operating cost was spot on.
Work rules NEVER come back, however pay fluctuates.
They will eventually come crying to us about concessions.
The QOL that was given away, kiss it goodbye FOREVER.
You trust Spirit management with PBS?
Forget about pilot CONTROLLED parameters, after every violation, they will tell you to grieve it...
Just look at the increase of relief lines.
I too demand equitable pay, just NOT at any cost.
How about, profit sharing, disability, retirement, block or better, improved rigs, long call reserve, red eye override, decent travel benefits, DH on business class, etc.
Are we negotiating any of the above?
A huge thanks to the Negotiating Committee for all their hard work.
Please do not vote for a concessionary contract.
We gave up enough for the iPads already...
