Yes. The most recent and only application of current ALPA merger policy (Pinnacle/Colgan/Mesaba) did just that. Please realize that as ALPA merger policy changes, so go the outcomes. While it is possible (and probable) that the panel will allow influence from prior awards, they are paid to follow current policy. That policy places "some" value on longevity.
