"Growing sentiment" I don't think so. More like: " in ONE person's opinion - klacko - ". That's all it is, one guy's opinion.
You guys can kiss the seniority system good by IF this policy changes......... hopefully not in my lifetime.
Undaunted: You are simply trying to put your own needs in front of everyone else's, again. Just like you were going to do when UAL was going to buy USAir and Cactus; you were going to hose those guys. There's no doubting your seriousness, we all know what you did to Frontier. (ALPA merger policy meant something until that stunt)
You have never missed a chance to put your own needs first on any issue, and this is no different.
If you want to unite the group, do something selfless.
This was all true when most of the airline's pilots had pensions (like your dad I presume). But this has all changed now. As the pensions disappear the need to retire is overwhelmed by the need to survive.I know lot's of pilot's who want out the minute they turn 60. They have saved, prepared, and want to enjoy the rest of their lives.
