This is the IBT's way of diverting attention to the fact they can't close the deal. The IBT has WITHDRAWN previously negotiated Sections...in their ENTIRETY. Having played this game before, being in a similar position, getting a release will be next to impossible. The Company will simply refer to the wasted time "negotiating in good faith" per Section 6 guidelines, and that they, can accurately state, they have met the minimum legal definition of "Bargaining in good faith.." Plenty of ammo for BB here, IBT 747 fiasco et al., and the game will go on. This "strategery" was approved by IBT Airline Div......Bedford will laugh all the way to the bank as ya'll work under this atrocious contract for a while longer. PS Wait to the "last hour Settlement" occurs....with no retroactivity to the Amendable date. I bet the IBT agrees to it, .....E190 is JetBlue or better, right? Look for some interesting spin on why THAT didn't happen......Good luck just the same.....
