This is what makes me nervous about the whole "we have great opportunities on the horizon....the pilots will be sooo happy if they expedite negotiations and learn to give a little more" at Delta. In the end it usually ends up being nothing. But you did get the chance to give and they say it is better to give than to receive so we got that going for us.
