gatbrusdriver,

Personally minimum for me is inflation and increase in trip pay without standby. It's very close to what the union negotiated with the company. The union also acknowledged in letter 2 I think that 1 crew down, the most common scenario requires better addressing. This would be a bonus this time, but NEEDS to go in next time as I see a mass staff exodus after this saga as people move to other carriers sick of the way this has been handled by BOTH sides. Take the >RPI component (0.5%) and redirect it into trip pay or crew down payments. The deal should only be for one year, so that all the other problem areas can be addressed almost immediately (its nearly time to start neg again), and not brushed under the carpet with empty promises (like we do respect you and will treat you better next time).

I do not believe they are unrealistic, and yes I did communicate this.
