Thats why we have been fighting for a contract for almost 2 years. First it was nwa wont talk till we have a deal,, we said no deal. then it was we are losing flying for other airlines because we dont have a deal,, we said no deal. Then it was nwa has signed a contract with us good till 2017 but they can take planes if we dont have a deal by march, we said no deal.
