I know we are all hungry and psychologically drained waiting for our contract, but we can not settle on the crumbs they throw off the table. We can't settle on a deal that is not worthy of a contract. Have faith, management needs a deal now more than we do and they will give more if we stand strong. Vote NO
Not exactly. The company will be saving app. 1.3M per day without this contract and will be in no hurry. They will want to change this and that, the NMB will want ALPA to do a Wilson Poll to determine why the contract failed... In the end, you'll end up with the same dollar cost to the company just rearranged to make it look better. At least go to a road show before you vote. This has all been done before, over and over. The results for labor are not pretty.
