Looks like some of the posts are getting deleted though.
What an absolute disgrace. Borderline insulting.

I mean feeling underpaid making 300k a year to work 12 days a month, given what most of the world experiences takes some good cognitive dissonance, but it’s not disgraceful… it’s the result of a strong union and great bargaining power. Don’t be too hard on yourself. Make hay while the sun shines ;-)

The rest of the world is more than welcome to get their medical, private, instrument, commercial, multi-engine, ATP, requisite hours, college degree, work experience, clean record, etc etc to get hired at a major airline and enjoy the benefits that those before them have fought and bargained for. I would argue that it has never in recent history been easier to do so.

We don’t negotiate based on what the rest of the world experiences, we negotiate based on what we feel and prove we are worth. I for one believe we are worth more than the leaked rates would suggest we are. Feel free to settle for less though. My vote is a solid no unless the rest of the contract is not only an absolute home run but an absolute bomb out of the ballpark with bases loaded. (Which it won’t be…)

what did I miss ?
ive been here since ‘16 and NEVER saw any survey. My opinion is the peeps at the top say there was a survey, but never occurred.

It’s amazing that this website would be able to delete a post with the rates. I don’t blame them for being embarrassed and ashamed. They are insanely low and will absolutely destroy pattern bargaining. Our entire profession will be harmed irreparably. Almost all carriers have open contracts.

We can all only pray the United pilots soundly reject this deal. Or better yet, the UAL MEC rejects it.

I did not see the pay rates, but there is much more to a contract than pay rates!!!

There is much more to a contract than rates, but bad rates isn't a great sign either... we'll see what your MEC puts out after they vote.

The A380 rates look pretty good though!
