What is the catch rate for the bypassed GS? I'll go out on a limb and say it's less than 50% until we have API access. At 50%, the cost to the company is 2x or the same as offering a GS. They WILL try getting away with this.

I agree they will try but ALPA will make automation a priority. This was advertised as the cure, pending full implementation of course.

I surmise half of our seniority could walk away tomorrow and live a life more comfortable than 80% of their countrymen and 95% of the rest of the world. Since we’re not doing so in large numbers, it would seem income matters.

It varies based on category, but contrasting WB A with NB A and B, Maternity/Paternity benefits, crew meal improvements, sit pay triggers, minimum day, IQ golden days and bidding, reroute pay and banded pay come to mind.

If you reread my post (and maybe others) you’ll see I don’t opine on qol vs money. That’s a calculus for each pilot to consider on their own, and they can then advocate for their wishes in communication with their reps (or here, if they’re in to that). I was simply offering a contrary perspective that NBA and WBB money are usually not the same, and sharing some math I’ve done to consider for my own circumstances.
