ULH,
Hmmm! Inflation rate, good luck with that.
Don't mean to sound flip, but I've heard this before in another life!
The much discussed housing allowance pertains to expat contracts on both mainline AND cargo.
Interesting you should mention the 10% cut over 60. It's my understanding that at one time SQ's retirement age was 55. When it was raised to 60 it was initially done with a 10% cut at 55+. I don't know how long it will take but my guess is that some day in the future (near or far is anyone's guess
) the payrates will be seamless to 65. But that's for another thread!
At the end of the day we will see what our brothers at ALPA-s deliver.
