  1. Deprived crew of up to 70% of their wages during the pandemic.
  2. Fired too many crew and brought them back on a reduced salary. Not uncommon for some FOs to be earning more than the Captain sat next to them.
  3. No overtime pay.
  4. No pay for deadheading.
  5. Loss of license cover removed.
  6. Incremental pay increase frozen.
So let us not get too carried away with this announcement. Many of us suffered greatly because of your decisions. Any potential 'bonus' payment, whilst welcomed, would need to cover all that you took from us in the first place.

A modicum of self-awareness is never a bad thing.
What UT said. The announced "bonus" payment is less than withheld pay over the same period.
