Everybody clapped and cheered of course. The office workers don't do any more work year on year. Still start and finish at the same time every day. Wonder what the EGHQ Costa contribution to the profit was?
Pay rise is usually announced in about a week. Once the euphoria over the profit share has died down.

Good plan DAYSEEMAL, then you can look as much of a idiot on the flight deck as you do on this thread!
The Company gives you 5 weeks extra pay, 5 weeks probably more than the majority of most airlines in this World, and you think a response like that is appropriate? What a prat. What would have made you happy? 8 weeks, 12 weeks? Personally I don't give a fudge about the profit share. I do, however, have concerns with the soon to be announced pay rise and the constant high hours we fly. That's where we should be focusing our energy.....
If you want the Company to treat you as a professional, behave like one.

Harry, don't go there... While I admire your pragmatism, don't make the schoolboy error of comparing us to other companies. What did Delta get in the past, eh?
Let people vent. It's all we can do when we're being shafted, yet again.

"What did Delta get in the past eh?" To be honest, I don't know, but perhaps you should ask that very same question to a few of the Delta guys that came to EK during the 2002/3 downturn, the time they were raped of their entire pensions and many were furloughed or lost their commands.
Good point though!

Delta got over 20% of their wages in the form of a Bonus but the company is trying to their Bonus away.
I bet no Delta pilot flew anywhere near our yearly total yet made more money than us both in the form of wages and company profit.
There was a severe worldwide downturn after the terrorist attacks but Delta pilots and most other airlines voted to get rid of their pensions and take a pay cut. Look what it has done for them now. Short term pain for long term gain.
I wish I had a Green Card or an exit Card.
5 weeks after 1026 flying hours last 12 months? What a joke! Is flying us 11% over the yearly max professional? Shut up and like it, I think NOT!
