Hence only extra money for Captain and FO, it is very calculated.
The same with the education allowance; The SO with kids will get a little extra as he or she will likely be somewhat older and come with previous experience, hence a good investment to keep.
The thing they probably missed is that life at CX is such hell at the moment, that 3K here or there is not going to move the needle one bit.
There are actually many 'free' things they could do, to make life easier under these trying times, but they don't seem to be interested in working with us at all. Only throw a few coins our way.
