What do you mean by negotiate for inflation? Do you really think it isn’t considered? There is a reason there isn’t a single publicly traded company does gauge wages directly to inflation, unlike the government. No airline contract will ever agree to it nor do you really want it. What happens when Delta rates are higher than inflation adjusted UAL rates???
what the negotiations team was saying is that a pay raise commensurate to the rise in inflation over the last 3.5 years was not the goal. My goal is 15% now and 4% into bplan. At a minimum. Slice the pie however you like it but overall compensation is way off the mark.

Comes back with about $320 right now (not $300). However if I look back 5+ years we appear to be well above inflation rates. It’s just difficult to separate short term inflation jumps with long term inflation averages. I think that’s where the 2 year contract duration makes sense, it sets us up to pattern bargain with other pilot groups as economy changes.

Good luck with that given the EWR reps and how they have bent over backwards for Insler and his minions. And yes, I’m aware the Chair voted no. Very smart move on his part. He knew the votes were there and played a very smart card of no accountability when we all know he supported this right up to the vote.

Let’s not forget CA and CO. So, literally every state we have a domicile in, and especially prices near the airports
