I definitely believe something needs to be done to slow attrition. BUT, if that was really the case, then why didn’t the company attempt to fix it sooner with an LOA or MOU?? Which is why I believe we will not see a deal anytime soon….and Bendo.

The grid being almost completely red and the fact there are only 38 actively bidding for October in PBS when historically it has been 45 plus.
Perhaps the word “very” is not accurate, but just short. Either way, it’s enough of a difference to create a decline in the QOL of the pilots.
Edit:
Also the ALV has been increasing.

The grid is contractually compliant at the start of Initial Open Time, but becomes almost exclusively red at the close. Only the top 10 percent are able to take advantage of the QOL this hard fought provision provides.
This is due to low FO staffing, and because of this, the grid starts with a net reserves of only 0 or 1 for many of the days. There are too many open duty periods compared to the number of available pilots.
By the time the first 5 pilots start adjusting their schedule (dropping most trips so they can become available for premium trips) the grid is almost completely red.
