Absolutely positively agree!! Every other airline separates from there pilots and it seems to work just fine. We are the only airline who sticks with them and look at where we are. Its all in what we negotiate people .That's all. Change people,Change.
But etops1, as a FA, checking into a hotel and not having the First Officer or Captain sign in for you can be a very terrifying experience! I say we keep the me-too! I would be horrified being in an airport trying to find the crew van all by myself!!
