What would be bad about that? As long as it is accompanied by a double digit percent retirement account along with some scheduling changes? If the growth continues, the 2.5 is meaningless and if it doesn’t or you cannot upgrade, hopefully you will keep up with inflation.

You are retired. Please stop throwing your financial illiteracy in the ring. You know nothing of what other ACMI’s are being given in these times without any contractual obligations. The Kalitta MOU’s also lag behind several companies. Upgrading is not a raise. It’s another job with it’s own challenges. The hourly pay gap in junior captains to other airlines rates Kalitta is aspiring to get is a difference of over one million in compensation in less than a decade. Whatever number you had in your head you “liked” or needed to retire is not applicable to everyone let alone anyone else. The pilot group will not settle for anything less than a contract which reflects our efforts that which brought the company its highest earning year in history.

Kalitta deserves nothing less than an industry standard CBA

You only get what you negotiate. Deserve has no bearing. That is why a strong, unified group is do important.

What is the standard? Who sets it? Where is it codified? How is it enforced? If there's a standard, why do we bother having all of these different locals and individual negotiations between unions and management? Why isn't there just one big negotiation that sets the standard so that we don't all have to go through this one at a time every time a CBA becomes amendable?

Because we live in a Capitalist/Free Economy. Each company is free to take advantage of their labor in whatever manner they see fit.

What about 2.5% per year, and a measly 6% DC? Does that float your boat?

So there's no such thing as an "industry standard CBA"? I was given to understand that there is an "industry standard CBA" and that Kalitta deserves nothing less than that. This is all so disappointing.

I feel like there is a whole lot of third party catfishing going on here from disenfranchised parties. Lets just all prepare to standby.
