Can we just pull those clowns out of there now? Thank you.
As if it would make a difference, please look at the MEC, what a change, you get a voice mail once a week from the MEC and Bendo.

"a 46 million dollar gap over the course of a proposed five-year agreement remains"

Here goes my attempt at math and logic;

46 million/1200 pilots = $38,333 per pilot.
Divided by 60 months = $638 per pilot per month
Divided by 72 hour guarantee = $8.87 per hour.

Whatever it is the union is proposing to the company, they don't seem that far apart to me.

Also keep in mind, the average number of pilots will be much higher than 1200 pilots over the next 5 years based on the aircraft delivery schedule.

Good point. So if that number projected additional hiring perhaps its only $4/ hour. But dont get lost in the math. Unless we know the package don't focus on the hourly rate. Its quite possible that these screws made work rule concessions to get a few more bucks. They've done it before

Hmmm, $4/hr on the top end of the pay scale vs. losing work rules? No way. But if the improvements to retirement are substantial, I definitely say fight hard.

Can someone explain to me how our NC negotiated for months based on our surveys when the surveys were just completed. They wouldn't have had time to even tally up the results let alone analyze the results.

The company is going to have a tough time making through the summer. Between the pilots and flight attendants, let's see them make it through another IROP without our help. I am sure their jobs will be on the line. So much for integrity, Benuri. I thought you were going to get us a fare deal. We better see current JB rates and then an annual increase. That's fare!

We are doomed.
