Or insurance, which nearly all businesses, including ALPA, maintain in case of lawsuits.
Without ALPA, where would TWA be? I doubt any of them would be at AA now, and they would have never had recall rights. Did they screw the pooch with the AA/TWA merger? Absolutely, but I don't think TWA is worse off because of ALPA.
