A great soccer game would involve a bench clearing brawl, that’s more likely to happen in a WNBA game though.

They’d all run out, flick each other in the ear, then all fall over like bowling pins crying like a 3 year old with a skinned knee.

 

I have learned so much about Contract 2019 in this thread.

 

Curious....

A lot of our regional partners provide up to (4) nights of hotel for commuters. I do not commute but might be something to "get" in the next contract when the company shifts flying to base XXX from base xxx. It's almost impossible to stay in one base your whole career. Just something to toss around.

Sick leave sucks here and we need more that 5 hours a month accrual. Delta seems to have that right.

 

5 hours/mo... ouch.

I’m a new guy, but I’m starting to really like the accrual method here at SWA... 10% of what I credit for the month (at straight time). This month I’ll credit around 140, so 14 (tfp) of sick for the month (actually, I’ll probably get 10-12 since it’s based on straight time only). A standard bid month of 90 would earn 9 sick, etc. I was unsure at first, but works good as a %.

 

Aren’t you a recent or current member of the MEC? If you have something to share, go for it.

 

It’s 2018 and let’s think about inflation before you make comments

18% DOS
Plus 4% every March 1st starting March 1st 2019 for 4 years
8 hours per month sick accrual for a max of 1200 and when a pilot retires 50% of sick hours banked will go to VEBA account for retired pilots health expenses
5 hours per day training pay with less than 5 days
3.2 hours training pay for training pay if more than 5 days
18% percent A and B fund for all income earned other than perdiem
4 hours per day vacation pay
$3 per hour domestic and $4 international Perdiem
$5 for FO and $7 for captain Intl override
Reserve pay: 4 hours and 36 minutes per reserve day with 13 days off minimum for reserve pilots on a 30 or less days per month and 14 days off for all 31 day months . All short calls after the first 2 as add pay one hour per day and not assignable rather aggressive pick up only unless not enough picking it up then company can assign to meet the min short call coverage

LTD $12000 per month tax free with company paying 60% of the funding with the employee paying %40 for it
VEBA amount $1.50 per hour every month for all credit hours
Profit sharing the same
Scope no change
Health insurance/life insurance no change


Anything else will be a concession

Very fair for all parties involved for 2019 to 2023 with labor peace for both

It will cost the company less than 7% pilot payroll increase and on 40 billion dollar sales with pilot payroll around 11 percent it will be around 350 million payroll increase per year and that’s 20 days worth of their profit per YEAR if they expect 4 to 5 billion annual profits

 

This^^^^^!!!!!

 

Getting close to the ballpark,

But what about our ponies?

 

And World Cup tickets?
US2026!
(or does that have to be part of our next contract?)

Motch

 

And definitely better sick time accrual in case there’s some thing contagious going around that summer.
