Kirby knows this and conceded the day the Delta AIP came out. He knew the game was up and called it a pass through expense. I'm cautiously optimistic

I would tend to agree, but Delta has set the rate based on a semi-forced hand by mediation. There's no where to go if your mgmt and have tell the truth to wall street about the revenue environment. How do you fill your vacancies this year without a contract? How do you get through a record summer without the support of the pilots? Due to the volume of hiring across the industry, If you're not first, your last. And Delta is definitely first.

As a mid continent based pilot you’re right I’d fight against it. You already get higher pay because you’re able to hold a much higher position than you could in any mid continent base. As a matter of fact if we had COLA and PS commuting watch how senior those bases go. I would be 50% in SFO as a WB CA or a bottom reserve in a mid continent. There’s the COLA right there. The people who bid the coastal bases already have it built in.

PSC and a Cola option would bring balance to the
“Living in base is a choice // commuting is a choice” refrain.
Stability for my children as they wend their way through school is my primary reason for commuting, a distant secondary is taxes. It’s not always all about the taxes.
