I can see that reading is a challenge for you, as well as spelling and basic grammar, but I'll give this one more try. You can't compare what you want here in your TA to what (insert airline here) is currently asking for in their negotiations. You can only compare yourself to what (insert airline here) currently has.
My assertion only serves as a caution to those who are making the argument that our TA will be at the bottom in a couple years based on what's being negotiated elsewhere. The mediator does not care what (insert airline here) is asking for or what they may have in 2017. I'm saying this so people who are thinking of voting no understand what we can and can't ask for.
I am not saying WHO we can and can't compare ourselves to, I'm talking about WHAT we can and can't compare ourselves to.

Yes, I was disappointed when I saw the work rules. You used to be able to commute with this airline. It just seems like we are negotiating for all of the stuff that the company has taken away in the last five years. But I also know that our NC and EXCO wouldn't give us a TA unless they thought it was the best deal they could offer us to vote on.
In the mean time, I'm still looking for other jobs. This company will not give us an amazing contract until they absolutely have to, and from the looks of their offer, they havent reached that critical point.

Hey guys current regional CA here. I have a 4yr degree, 3 types and about 5,500hrs TT. Would Allegiant be a good choice? I heard about this TA but don't really know much about starting pay rates, etc. I'm willing to move, but I would like some clarity on this "infinite" TDY. Thanks!

VBD is our variable base, it's what they award when there's no other vacancies currently available to new hires and is the most junior 'base.' It's not a bad deal if you are flexible and like to see new places, it is terrible if you have a family. Most of the new hires have been able to get what they want or close to it though while they are still in training. We don't typically do involuntary TDY's anymore unless you're on the Airbus in SFB. If you do get bases in FL however, be prepared to be on reserve not just in your base but for every FL base and AVL.
