Voted? Who voted? You mean the MEC, because the pilots certainly had no say in this.
There are probably a few sour captains here who would want a chunk of money for whatever reason. I'm sure there are a few that felt they spent way too long as an FO and might deserve some. But one thing most everyone here agrees on is the fact that none of the company's feel-good numbers work if they don't have FO's in line to fill the vacated CA seats. Nice touch to add some dosh for recruits with 121 time as well.
It's about damn time.
Those alter-Eagles can say whatever they want, but these retention bonuses have been needed for a while. There's no point in offering retention bonuses to captains who are going to flow or get picked up by majors much more quickly than FOs. We need CA's to leave to make room for upgrades, not sit around collecting more cash.
*I'm a captain here, so it's not some FO griping about the guys blocking his way.

Who cares now? CAs make livable wages, FOs don't. How does it feel now? Bad? Oh well, we've been 2 yrs with that same feeling.

We had $0 before and $20,000 now without giving up anything. Is it Endeavor, no. Honestly FOs deserve more. The FO to CA pay ratio should the same as mainline...

Well if it isn't at least Endeavor standards you failed. Plus to not even be able to vote on it is another huge issue. Every compensation change should have everybody voting on it not just the MEC.

You don't vote for every bill in Congress, your Senator does that for you.

I'm sure PSA will be offered the same thing just like with the cadet program. What will you have to say for yourself when PSA gets a carbon copy?
