YP is essentially correct, the reactions I have observed are ones of disappointment with the level of the raise (to be fair, one could also argue that the expectations were perhaps a little fanciful given Mixed Fleet's raison d'etre, which has little to do with customer service and a lot to do with making huge savings).

On another note, Mixed Fleet crew recently operated a flight to Japan with no bunks. It was legal (crew rest can be taken on suitable reclining seats). Despite protestations from the operating CSM and Captain, the crew were basically told "tough".

It's not hard to see why some MF crew are becoming a little disillusioned with pay, and the Company's attitude/treatment of said crew.
