Default Paid Parking Coming Soon

Today’s SWA News Brief email says paid parking is coming to ground ops, flight crew, and tech ops employees. Pleased to see they’re acknowledging this industry standard item (hesitate to call it a benefit because, parking at work seems like common sense). One less thing to use negotiating capital on.

I still want it 100% covered in the cba. Just because they’re offering it now doesn’t mean they will agree in the future or balk if prices go up (especially for those who live out of base in high cost areas like NYC)

It better be in the parking garages.. although the parking spot is faster. I can literally park and be inside the terminal in roughly 5 min with them. I have done the close in parking and I think it’s more of a PITA. Need a Miata.. and maybe some sketchers for the walk.

Depends on base. Parking spot sucks here. Better be at least covered parking or garages. Employee lots are also bad but cheapest choice. It better be in the contract. I have zero trust in SWA.

Agreed! I can almost guarantee you that the company will say but but we gave you paid parking!! I literally had paid parking at every airline I’ve been at. Never been a problem. Uniform allowance that accumulates. Just insanity we don’t have simple crap like that. Guess I’ll walk around in brown necked collars and mismatching colored pants because M&H can’t produce a product worth a darn.

This is not paid paid parking from today forward. It will be treated as a reward like buddy passes and SWAG Points ( you will only get if certain work conditions are met) You will get the paid parking if you are a good pack mule ,
