I just took a big sigh, not a bad Negotiating Team we have!!, great job so far.. But still a rocky road ahead.


ALL PILOTS, not only SPIRIT and our families are behind this great TEAM.

Thank you guys.

 

Back To Work!!

 

Any Idea on the Road Shows?

 

DTW: 6th and 7th
ACY: 8th and 9th
FLL: 10, 11, 12

Morning and afternoon sessions, times TBD.

 

I second'd that

FWIW: I think the four day's off and keeping PBS off property took its toll on pay???????

 

I agree, exactly!
4 days and saying no to PBS comes at a price.

 

A HUGE PRICE

 

So.. what do we want:

* More money and Less time off.

* Normal bidding or PBS.

Also on a recent report that one of our guys did after reviewing the differences in both, The Current Contract and the TA, mentioned that the health Ins. POS A goes up nearly 300%.

This is out of my checks:

POS II A:

NOW
EE+2: 110.00 every chk= 220 month

TA
EE+2: 165.00 every chk= 329 month

That's a 50% or 109.00 dollars increase, not 300%.

(what Am I missing?)

Don't get me wrong, any increase on anything other than pay is a pay cut, but personally, because every person has different financial responsibilities, think that an increase of 110 a month on health Ins does not off set my pay increase while keeping my current benefits.

So far I still a YES, we'll see next week at the "circus maximus show". Cant wait to see the dude with the hairy nostrils go crazy about OT, bring popcorn!

 

actually pos a is 70 per check or 141 per month on 2010 rates, so the increase is 189/month($2256/year)..so that's closer to a 150 percent increase..

that's coming out of your 18% raise...

 

How does 4 days off take a toll from pay? I don't understand....
