If this is true, look at the numbers: First of all, what is the duration of the contract? Let's assume 4 years. The contract has been open for 4 years with another 4 attached to that. A 12% pay increase equals a whooping 1.5% pay increase per year! Wow! Food stamp recepients get more of a raise than that. Then there is a $20,000 signing bonus? Again, divide 20,000 by 8 = $2500 per year. Of course that does not include taxes and ALPA's chunk of the proceeds. Jay Pierce a hero? He's a hero for management and that's why they are thanking him. Next time let the F/A's negotiate for the pilots. At least they have cajones.

Now that is refreshing and I'll drink to that! In fact, I'll drink to just about anything. Both contracts are limp and in serious need of repair. Let's all hoist a tumbler to the collective growing of the cajones and the necessary leadership from both MC's, and MEC's to give us a TA we can vote yes on.

But based on what I've seen so far, more years of effluent are going to be dumped upon our heads. So, back to drinking.
