I think we have another 7 years or so on this contract, but that means very little. We have gotten several bonuses, benefit increases, and other good things in the last 2 years. I would expect more changes for the better in 4 months or less.

Commuter hotels or reimbursement? I know Piedmont gives commuter pilots 4 hotels per month (2 in PHL), but I thought PSA just reimbursed you. Also, I believe the 2 free tickets on AA was for people on property prior to July 1. I don't think it's being offered to those hired today.

The AA tickets were for people on property, mainly because it was an incentive for those already here.
I am not one to complain about free stuff, especially when we are not giving anything up to get it.
My comment was that it really doesn't matter what the contract says if the company agrees to pay us more than what is in the contract and provide us better benefits.
I can not imagine the company backing down from any of these, and expect them to increase even more. Don't you?

I think the only direction for pay, is up. And if the rumors are true that the union is getting close to negotiating with the company, I would expect that a few QOL items would improve also. Not because I think the company is feeling generous all of the sudden, but because I think they realize these are things that will help recruiting and also help retain people that are already here.
Does anybody else find it infuriating that they are negotiating such a large deal and we haven't even seen an opener?

Is that what's being negotiated? I don't know much about PBS, but I'd be ok with it as long as we can still SAP after the award. PBS and no SAP is a no vote from me unless I'm getting LIFE CHANGING pay and/or QOL improvements. For me...SAP alone is life changing. So if the company wants to take it away they're going to have to give us something life changing in return. 100% DH and 4:15 min day is no where near life changing. That might give me 2 hours more credit per month at best.

I don't think you have a SAP with PBS. Anything that hits the pot that you would want would have already been awarded to you in the line construction. Everyone is senior to the open time pot, so how can anything you want bypass you and end up in it?
Unless PBS ignored your request to honor the company's request, then the company is going to let you SAP and undo the reasons PBS ignored your request in the first place?
