Does Delta want that UAL plus 1%?

[ultrarunner]

I thought I remember where Delta had some contract issue which insured UAL payrates plus 1%.

Does it kick in now?

What? Ummm, no. We used to have stickers on our bags that said United + 1%, and I guess we could also hope that remains true. (at least)

So, with the latest numbers released on the UAL scales, will the 1% on those do better or worse than what you have now?

Actually General, I think those stickers simply said UAL Plus. At any rate, that was a negotiating slogan for C2K a goal we reached. We now have POS'04, where management attained there stated goal of C2K-$1B/year.

Worse. Luckily our contract is not directly tied to UAL, it never was.

FDJ2,


That is correct, it did say United +. (not +1%) I took that sticker off of my bag a while ago.



Ultrarunner,

Where are you going with this? If you need to look at payscales, then go to Airlinepilotpay.com and look for yourself.

Not going anywhere. I just seem to remember the UAL PLUS slogans and rants several years ago. I thought that your contract was tied to UAL and that DAL would always get UAL + 1% and I was wondering if that type of clause was in effect.

FDJ2 cleared it up.

I'm aware of where I can get the numbers.

thanks
