Delta has reclaimed scope in past negotiations. We capped, then took back flying from ASA when they were operating 100 seat jets. There is nothing that prevents us doing the same thing in future negotiations.
So thanks for jumping to (incorrect) conclusions.
It is however a horrible track record with even worse foresight. I'd like to see that change, but most of the entrenched types at ALPA are too busy patting themselves on their back and trying to justify past decisions vs. making actual strong progress.
