The DPA does not have a conflict of interest, and we all know and can't deny that ALPA has a HUGE conflict of interest between the legacies and regionals. You just can't represent both at the same time. And at the same time, ALPA and management have seemed to become "cozy", which can also seem suspicious. Attending birthday parties is probably not the smart thing to do. I think a vote for the DPA may at least be the wake up call ALPA needs, because they sure don't want to lose over $35 million a year in dues.
