From an outsider looking in. A pay increase is a given, it's a pilot's market right now. It's the other QOL issues you should be looking at. I haven't seen or do not know anything about your TA so I can't comment on it good or bad. I can say at Delta we had a horrible TA that ALPA told us was the best we would get. Our CEO even sent a letter to all pilots saying do not vote this down because this is our best offer. Well it got voted down for the first time ever, and we got MUCH better on round 2. Good luck to you guys however it turns out.

What was your old rate compared to TA1? I might be also willing to vote down and lose out on, say, $10/hr while waiting for TA2 but not $70/hr.

Not when we need the scope protections. Not when we need the LTD. Not when we have 67%+ increase in retirement to lock in now.

Not really an even comparison and thats not even taking into account the NMB situation.

6 Voting no because they always vote no.


What about the people who HAVE USED PBS, and hated it?

I’m a DFW no and far away from “gravy train” status. I guess we’re done with unity now so let’s get back to my base is better than yours.

Was thinking the same thing. Up north and haven’t flown or talked with a single no yet.
