Agreed, although I can't really imagine DALPA "rushing" into a concessionary agreement WRT to the most important issue - scope, both top and bottom. Just seems unlikely to me considering the times we live in that the DAL MEC would readily, and ahead of schedule give up anything...

UPS + a dollar sounds more like it.

Only if we also get their Cessna Caravan feeder agreement.

But Scope is more important then pay in my book.

FWIW, 3rd year FO 7ER reserve guarantee is going to be over 10K a month. Not saying that's good or bad but that's what it's going to be.

If we keep asking for something + a $, over the course of time inflation will put us at a financial disadvantage. How about something plus a %?

Thanks and I wish you were right. At the MEC level at least, we're about to give them even more 76 seaters while calling it a scope victory.

If that doesn't get voted down it will truly be astounding how short sighted pilots have become.
Anyone who wants to vote yes for that, have them go back and look at UAL's grounding of their entire 737 fleet
in relation to the allowance of 70 seaters and scope relaxation.
I flew a few of them to the boneyard and looked around. It is a sobering reality of the effect of relaxing scope.
Just say NO.
