It's a good thing this virus will be short term.

Lets look into a hypothetical future. The NO vote gets up, the 350's go to a new entity.

In the future the 380's are grounded for a longer period of time, and or retired. 380 pilots RINd to 330/787. What happens to the junior pilots? Well after the EBA process is followed, redundancy! And remember the 350s never came, so there is no new seniority numbers below you because no new pilots were ever hired (they went to the new entity).

If you are new to this company and are thinking of voting NO in this EBA, you will severely regret it!

100% correct.

I haven’t been forced in to a yes vote by AJ or his counterparts, I have made a decision using the facts on the table. Assess your own facts wisely and don’t vote based on what your mate might think of you. This is not a pissing contest about who can outlast the other.
No emotion. Facts only. A wise piece of advice.

With our beloved CEO now taking no salary until July 2020, back pay and 3% pay rises is looking pretty good!
