If we can't get compliance with our written SCOPE then we are in big trouble.
Aw come on, what's a few percent between friends? You wouldn't want to risk endangering the constructive engagement, would you?
50% is really 49.75% which is really a moving average betwee 45% and 56%, where we will stall out at 45% and renegotiate the new 50% (49.75%) for our new half of the lower baseline. On the bright side, VAus gets 2:1 but we preemptively capped that to only 3:1, and VAtl is proudly saying our future JV with them will cause them to grow. Gol was supposed to be a domestic Brasilian JV, but aftet the ink was dry they said they would be spamming as many US markets as they can physically reach.
Anyway I hope we stick to our JV greivance with no mercy the second the company is out of compliance. They are basically saying they intend on being significantly out of balance during the remedy period and don't seem concerned in the slightest about it, almost counting on us just accepting it. Just like all contracts (except pilot contracts) they will point to mean Air France and say "a contract is a contract, we just can't get out of it, mah bad". Maybe DALPA should get the same kinds of "iron clad" contracts for our pilots that the company signs with all the third party providers.
