no one at all (management or judge) cares or ever will care about "saving money" or performance, bk filings are an airline management tool to erase debt and contracts ......period. nobody on the planet cares where the company wasted money or how low their employees are paid but the employees. The employees have very very little power. Lets look at the last decade of airline bk. All pilots took drastic paycuts, some tried to help first and the only diff was those pilots took two cuts.
