Very amusing part of the Sunstate EBA Campaign update on 27th.
"We are also aware of some misinformation being spread on various on-line forums regarding the proposed agreement. Again, we simply ask that all pilots read the final package once it is released and attend the roadshows before determining their vote"
Somehow I think they're gonna make their proposal look really nice.
Anyway, your Sunstate negotiator (there was only one in the room when the deal was struck), while knowing the details of the Eastern proposal, has given away several things:
a) We're already aware of the 55% for 3 years garbage.
b) The Sunstate DHA starts at $9.30 (Captain) and $6.00 (FO) increasing to $10 & $6.50 at the end of the 3 to 4 year agreement. The company was the one who initially put forward $10.00 and $6.50 from the start of the Eastern agreement.
c) No Productivity Incentive Payment for new FOs until they are a Captain. Awesome for them, considering 5 to 10 years before the upgrade.
d) Forfeited 6 months of backpay. Yep 6 months gone.
Wonder what kind of incentives the company offered Rod.
