Scope failures are more directly related to alter ego replacement of our airline's pilots:

  • Does the action increase of decrease the representational power of the Delta Master Executive Council?
  • Does the action protect the seniority & longevity of Delta pilots?
Based on objective criteria, the Alaska codeshare is controversial, but not clearly a "scope fail" in the same way the Compass divestiture was.
