So you are a Yes vote? If you come back in 5 years with a No vote our pay will have been eaten up by inflation (say 10% down). If you vote yes, in 5 years this TA will have sunsetted and we will have a 5% raise, 1st class, minor RSV fixes, etc... Not sure how a No vote makes us better off in 5 years?

If your 5 years holds up (probably accurate) then this TA would have expired 3 years prior. Yeah, your math totally makes sense. Makes me interested to know how you calculate bingo fuel.

You start with an extra 2000lbs at the gate (assuming narrow body) and adjust upwards from there to avoid a bingo situation.

What is the total bill for this concessionary TA and how much are we actually spending to save the furloughs(temporarily)? The difference is hundreds of million of dollars. Hundreds of millions of dollars out of our pockets to fund Kirby's business gamble. If it's such a good business risk then why doesn't Kirby fund it? He doesn't have to because he's got Insler's hands in our pockets. Lots of promises, lots of fear, lots of shiny useless trinkets.
Don't worry though. Next time the company furloughs it will be different.

I read and digested the TA over the last few days.
I voted this morning.
Nothing written here or anywhere else swayed me.
It doesn't matter if you're Yes or No, vote. It's going to be a close one.
