They’ll be kind enough to supply the NC with all manner of foreboding PowerPoint financials to spook pilots into believing 50 hours is a gift in and of itself.
The more things change, the more they stay the same.

haha. Exactly. I don’t think Ted will take less salary, bonus or buyout in the face of grounding NEOs and financial losses.

As opposed to what?? 50hr VIL compared to 0 hour furlough. Maybe it’s beneficial to the airline but it happens to be beneficial to us as well. Get some perspective man.

Why don’t you slide over to the JetBlue forum and read up on their LOA

I think you missed his point. The company could be ready to offer 50 hour VILs, but they don’t want to offer them AND other gains in an LOA like JBLU just got with theirs. So you set the stage of disaster and sell the “you’re lucky we can offer 50 hours and only 50. Forget about an LOA with anything else, didn’t you see the side show?”

100% correct. I wish I could see winning power all numbers as clearly as this playing out

There’s a lot of assuming that the company is going to offer VIL’s that pay 50 hours.
