I am not saying it's the only reason. I came here years ago thinking it was the next southwest. That's was the reason. Fast upgrade, Good guys to fly with and good qol and the hope of a great contract. I commute so it means a lot to me to have the four days off. I am not willing to give in on pbs or below standard pay. So forgive me for wanting to hold on to a big qol item. We don't have to give in of trade it.

Btw, when did I even mention Delta? DA

I'm just curious..since we have industry leading work rules and QOL, why aren't our classes filling up with Delta, Fedex, UPS, United and SWA applicants? Clearly they are uninformed about this diamond in the rough airline and are missing out!!

Not sure how long you have been here but 6 years ago things were a little more optimistic.

Don't turn the beacon off until the jetway is attached and the main door open. If they open the cargo door with the beacon on it is time for a chat....
