Hard yes. Haven’t talked to a single no yet amongst friends. Only no voters you see are the usual complainers on Facebook and people hiding behind their screen names.

my guess is 70/30 pass

I'm voting no, but I haven't actually read it yet I'm just going off what people are saying on Facebook

Still reading the TA but my stance was zero concessions. I also had a couple of important to me improvements that are not there so I'm not happy. I would think if we sent it back, a few changes would be made quickly (happened in the past) and sent back out. For that reason I have no fear of voting no if I should decide that.

Carter1, Might be some truth to it, but certainly not all No voters are complainers or hiding. Last year it was been the Yes voters who hid. There are a number of reasons to vote either way and we should respect each other for it.

when official vote is in, it will be 70-80% Yes, consistent with pilot group voting behavior at Delta and AA.

I agree. I wish there was more respect amongst everyone in all regards when it comes to all of this.

you’ve got my respect even though we differ in opinion. People are allowed to disagree, I wish people remembered that

How about an undecided answer? We are 3 days in…

I respect a difference in opinion. When I begin to disrespect that is when certain loudmouths feel the need to rally others to their way of thinking,

The T/A, from everything i've read so far, is 85% good, 10% not so good, and 5% terrible. For me and my family, sick time is a downright pathetic excuse of an improvement. ESB is absolutely useless with all the barriers in place. Not happy that we are the only ones still playing the 50 and 75 percent premium game. 767 still pays as a NB, and 350 hour forced captains should, at the minimum, concern us all. I respect and can absolutely see why someone would vote yes. I unfortunately am having a hard time looking past the terrible. Whichever way you slice it I can't see how this total package matches Delta. We exceed them slightly in some areas, but fall way short in too many others.

It’s like voting for a 3rd party candidate when you live in Texas or California. They will spend the next 5 years telling everyone they meet that they voted no.
It's not like that, at least for me and my NO vote. I think the improvements in QOL fell short of what was promised to us through the various communications. There are certainly improvements that match Delta, so for that alone, I believe it will pass.

That said, the NO vote for me also represents the "eye of the tiger" that we don't practice enough. All talk. not enough action.

I didn’t realize that DAL was the standard for safety.
