As a shareholder, I'm furious! AMR, UAL, CAL and LCC each made their pilots negotiate for YEARS without new deals, saving their Corps. hundreds of millions, if not BILLIONS of dollars, money that could be used to make my stock worth more...
"Giving" 1.5 Billion to their pilots? It was completely funded by our cuts in profit sharing, and large increases in productivity, etc. That's why Delta management refers to this contract as
cost neutral to Delta.
But you knew that.
