Hell no he isn't going to no! Nor is any of thier capts. It will pass.
If they were already making $100k and had the possibility of voting no, getting a better deal and STILL getting the 60k pay raise?I am curious to see how many Americans will vote no to a $60,000 pay raise in this economy.
Really?
Talked to any of our junior or mid-level Captains lately?
True dat, but don't expect any tricks or smoke and mirrors from the language...it is pretty simple...AAI gets 851 (vs 815) retention slots basically forever (after 2020 our CBA will protect those seats)...in exchange we get seniority on a sliding scale...we get all future upgrades until the 2007 hire SWA FOs reach the 50% line...bottom 650 AAI FOs are stapled, post snapshot hires follow...
Remember the 717s are seat locked for 3 years...AAI pilots on the 717 will not be sitting much more reserve than they do now...
Or you could "downgrade" to senior ATL FO and make the same coin you're making now. Your choice. A choice I won't have unless enough of you make that choice.
Looks like Tex will be "calling me out".
Have you notice TY has not been on here much? He likes it so he is not saying much.
Bring on the arbitrators, I'm voting no.
I'm going from 11% at AirTran to 38% on the combined list and between two SW Capts hired years after me. Bring on the arbitrators, I'm voting no.
It's not greed at all, so no need to try and frame it that way. It is about having the same seat and same QOL on the 140 aircraft that we brought with us to this deal. That's what "fair and equitable" means.No, but come on. Is greed setting in over at AT now. Thats great! If I here one AT capt bytch about the deal I will be more and glad to call them out. AT is gone and a thing of the past. They are doing it out of support for the FO's, but will vote yes behind closed doors. They want their seat and SWA capt pay and benefits. Its just business for them. So is this acquisition. What else do they want? Have you notice TY has not been on here much? He likes it so he is not saying much.

Yet some of your pilots seem to think that they have the rights to those seats and that our CA's should get displaced. They also think that their seniority is somehow valued higher than ours. Sorry. It doesn't work that way. We are both Major airlines. The pay/benefits bump is a product of becoming a SWA pilot. I never applied there. I didn't ask to be one. GK made me one with the stroke of a pen, so now I am no different than any other SWA pilot. SWAPA didn't do that, SWA did. Therefore, SWAPA global seniority should have no connection to the pay/benefits bump that SWA orchestrated.
