Hardly. Read the latest NC version of the union rag. They have a good handle on the contract stuff.
I do send feedback to both the chiefs themselves and the union rep for HOU about the abysmal condition of the lounge. The ball is in the chief pilots' court and they know it. In my last feedback from them, they cited Covid cost cutting as the reason. Yeah, ok. Somehow during the same time period, MCO got an entire renovation. I'll continue to be the squeaky wheel, I guess, even though it violates my under the radar policy of survival.

Houston based?
They tend to only deliver news when it's some "amenity" that they are cutting like when they told us that they would no longer provide coffee (not joking) because Provo doesn't have enough.
I assume that someone has won a presidents award for saving the company money on our lounge renovation budget. Check out the couch in the back corner. I think it was sitting out by a curb outside a heroin shooting gallery.
Someone decided long ago to buy three tables and some office chairs and have us relax and unwind by staring at other pilots and watching OANN and Fox. Fun stuff.

no. I stopped sleeping in jack shacks once I got out of the military. I looked at the 'rest facilities' when I was based in HOU and just walked the key back to the coordinator. I didn't need to rest that bad.

Rumor has it that the new Denver lounge (being moved to the far east end of the concourse when construction is completed) will have an outside patio. Not sure how much I believe it since it will only be useful for 5 months out of the year or so but will be pretty cool if it is true.
