And as DAL88 pointed out, I don't think DALPA is thinking of that as a minimum. Personally, I think their view of the minimum is 3% raise each year with some fixes to 23K and maybe a few other tiems. They *aren't* going to change much in scheduling - they just did that with the SOT. The only items I bet we'll see are the 5-6 items they couldn't come to a consensus on in the SOT.
Ask the DALPA guys why the Airtran guys can get Southwest wages, but we can't? Maybe they deserve it, and we don't? We'll see I guess in the opener.
