I guess I don't see the harm in picking up a JA trip. No one is on furlough. Definetly don't pick up at 100%. That says we are cool with our low rates. A trip at 200% still costs the company money. Plus they usually have to drop something else too, creating another opportunity for someone else at potentially 200%.
Why do you support the company with their lack of staffing and self induced problems?
Are you getting a yellow cape and mask to wear at the airport when you get the JA?
Enjoy your family and friends and the time away from the company now until we are compensated appropriately. Then accept those opportunities.

They need to start at the DOS +4 rates, cut out the first 3 years to make it a 12 year scale, that would be a good point to start and that's just the captain scale. The FOs needs to be a percentage of the captains after that. Then I'd be ok with 10% DC and 5% match or something along those lines. This was a pathetic slap in the face. How the hell were we ever close?

That's what scary
Yeah, compensation is never a sticking point [sarcasm].
Who's faul is all this? Is the NC or the MEC, or both?

So this proposal/payscale is less than or equal to 40 million apart from our ask.
Time for new leadership. This is a joke folks (unless you are one of the top 400 guys). Then it's looking industry competitive.

No to play devils advocate, but how many were expecting NK management to come up with everything we wanted on the first proposal.

Doubt this is the first proposal considering just a few months ago we were "40 million" apart.
This is the last of probably a string of proposals but first they made public.
What you're seeing is the culmination of like 10 months of negotiations
