One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. That’s why we have so many choices on how you bid. BWYWWWYB.

Are you high?

With RSV starting at 0600 and the ability to decimate premium pay, the company will have every motivation to run the worst possible g-line with the maximum allowable number of reserves.

Every airline would like to just tell every pilot what they're going to do on a day-to-day basis (keep the whole pilot group on RSV). Inefficiencies (like a 1000 start) are the only things that motivate them to do otherwise.

they get to run a higher Line value too. That’s even more reserves.

Keep your add pay, and I will keep my nights at home.

The company already abuses reserves, now it will be even worse with more abuse. This TA moves us backwards, not forward. I am still in disbelief the union would vote to present us a concessionary contract.

If you think you are clear of having to be on reserve, then you know NOTHING about this job.

NO!
