So is the company paying PT his consulting fees for the chap. 11 court date, what a joke, it would almost be funny if it wasn't criminal. I agree with everyone on here, take no concessions because they'll happen on their own anyway during chap. 11 proceedings, so we can continue to enjoy our current pay until further notice. Well now we know why that coward and criminal Phil Trenary escaped the company like the rat that he is.

It is hard see from your perspective right now but PNCL is not going to implode. Managements number one job right now is to spread as much doom and gloom as they can. The more your employees eat up the doom and gloom the more successful management is.....and hence the bigger bonus they will get in the end. PNCL will be fine. All non-union groups will take a small paycut, some contracts with all sorts of suppliers will be renegotiated and pilots will take a cut depending on how good management can turn your MEC and young inexperienced pilots agianst your contract. Which everyone know you guys are overpaid and driving the company into bk.

Who would they give it to? Pinnacle if one of the cheaper airlines, if not the cheapest.

The only problem is if you wait a year, and another year, then another year, waiting for "the ship to right itself". And before you know it, you've been a regional FO for a decade, your kids are grown, and your wife has left. So keep that in mind.

Fixing liquidity through wage concessions won't prevent bankruptcy. And 7% isn't all that were going to get cut in bankruptcy. Obviously this is a move inspired by our delightful seabury friends to double dip.
Also I heard a fascinating rumor about 700 furloughs, hope it's just a rumor.
