I agree, we deserve legacy pay rates.

Do we think that the timing of this jcba might actually not be in our favor as the legacies probably won't be getting any pay raises any time soon?

We don't really have a good pattern to follow here. Maybe be best in some other airlines get new contracts and we can try and piggy back of them

If your goal is 121, go 121. You just won’t build time and experience fast enough even at a busy 135.
