I voted yes, it's only one year. Some Bro FO's got a nice raise, and we start the process again in a few months. Otherwise we would all have gotten nothing, and started the process again in a few months. Helps reduce the federal food stamp budget.
No way to do any better without a union, and even then we could get under-bid by mesa, et al.

The bro pay raise was an attractive offer but was it really worth giving up 2 year seat locks to the company to give 20% of the pilot group a raise? When negotiations come up again in a year what bargaining chip can we bring to the table that the company would accept in return for a pay raise? We're kind of left hoping the pilot shortage actually happens so we have leverage.
