If I quoted Jeff accurately, then payout or transfer of sick time to VEBA/RHA should be at 100%.

This is a major factor. When on LTD at UA you don’t accrue vacation (nor can you even bid vacation), no b-fund match, you pay your portion of insurance out of pocket, LTD payments are from an insurance policy and not wages and therefore not qualifying for 401(k) contributions, etc. LTD is a safety net that I wouldn’t want to be without, but I’d also like to avoid it if possible.

APA Negotiating
ALLED PILOTS
ASSOCIATION
Committee Update
Negotiations Update
Fellow pilots,
Offsite negotiations continue. At this point, formal passes, term sheets, or proposed contract language have been exchanged on almost every section of the contract. Many of these items are on the one-yard line, but some key areas require additional bargaining, to include overall valuation. It is the APA's position that the sum total of this contract must be industry leading for our pilots, and with a robust pay structure that will not be summarily exceeded or snapped up to by other carriers' future contracts. We remain resolved that with diligent effort by both APA and AA, the terms of such an agreement can be laid down and communicated before we finish this round of intensive negotiations.
