Which if inflation keeps up at 8% will likely just raise your effective tax rate enough for you to break even…

It really puts the 9% in United’s TA into perspective.

And its still under our top rate of $355 for CA and $240 for FO.
No profit sharing.
Minor scope changes

My guess is they will accept it, and still end up not in the top 4 for payrates in a year once everyone else gets raises.

Profit Sharing remains in place.

Huge Scope change. It never existed before.

There is a Snap Up Clause on pay rates.

It’s a big raise but they were playing catch up. Glad they got snap up

I would think most who read this realize how misleading this statement is, but for those who don’t: $355 is not a correct comparison to Alaska’s $331 top CA rate. $355 is United’s top rate for widebody, and Alaska doesn’t fly widebodies.

United’s top 737 rate is $294, and Alaska’s is now $331 (2024). This is the apples to apples comparison.

If we are comparing apples to apples, shouldn’t we look at Alaska’s rate at DOS vs our current rate? Who knows what our rate will be in 2024? It could still be $294, it will hopefully be more, and it might even be less.

I think folks are missing this point quite a bit. The $400K household income cap is going to be a factor for many top earners and many gains seen will be wiped out via "paying your fair share". Make more money - no change to your standard of living.
