If the Delta TA goes through, don't expect a TA to pass on our side unless there are significant job protections and QOL improvements. Not in a hurry, we have a good contract on the ERJ side. As far as I'm concerned we can just keep operating separately permanently!
Personally, I'm OK with staying separate too....However you are way off in left field with your "theory".
There is a "need" to wrap this up if we are going to take advantage of some opportunities that are out there. IF the Delta TA passes, the 50s don't leave till the end of 2015. With attrition, and replacement 900s, I don't see any furloughs.
Yes there are many that think it is prudent to wrap this up...but it isn't because of pending furloughs.....
