I ask to illustrate the "total picture" way of looking at this. OVERALL DCI block hours will significantly shift to mainline PLUS we pick up JV protection and a few other "must haves".

I don't like swallowing a turd any more than the next guy, but I'm trying to see the whole picture. It might be the least worst. Voting No does not guarantee a better result.
I don't have a problem with the JV end of this TA. The JV side of this is as if not more important than the bottom end. I would just prefer that we don't trade scope. Let's get great JV protections and hold the line at 255 70/76 seat RJ's. Imo this should not be a concessionary contract and we shouldn't have to give up anything in regards to protecting our jobs. I think we gave enough of our jobs up in the last decade.
