From the LEC 44 Hotline today:

"The net result of RAW and its efficiency is that it saves Delta money by reducing the number of reserves required, open time and premium flying. These net savings from RAW go to Delta’s bottom-line, but not necessarily yours."

Glad to hear they're all about taking up the fight against the company's efforts to reduce the number of reserves required. Makes me wonder what other possible ways we could work to stop the reduction in staffing requirements. Anyone?
