That D-ALPA negotiated for and won.

Maybe Barron should look in the mirror to see who was played.
Maybe it is about time UAL Pilots look at taking action with or without ALPA....
More of your obvious agenda poking through.
@ uaav8r - 1. Why do you view not having gone on strike as a lack of fortitude?
Is the
willingness and preparedness to strike critical to successful negotiations or is an actual strike the only way to prove resolve?
The Delta C2K was achieved AFTER a release from the NMB and less than 72 hours from when a strike was to occur. The Delta Pilots had already gone to the base airports and emptied their lockers in a fully publicized event, and the company capitulated and signed onto the last of the DALPA demands.
P.S. 45% of the current Delta Pilots are former NWA pilots, and they did walk in 1998, so be careful with painting with a broad brush.
Keep your ire pointed in an effective direction, the JNC's got snookered by the NMB's forced "play nice order"..... Hopefully they will release you soon due to the "bad faith" that UCAL is continuing to show.... I still think you won't get released until after Nov. 6, but all that means is that you have a few more months to build your "vacation fund". I wish you guys did not have to go on strike, but your management just won't compensate you properly without a fight.
