The info we have is too limited, but let's say all the cards are on the table: the company is offering 85% guarantee, against the right of being under a few weekly slots, and keeping the codeshares beyond Japan. Those codeshares might come in handy, as we try to get a partner in Haneda.

So, you bypass the usual race to deniability, where some of the reps let the vote pass, and argue they were against it. Pass it to the membership. Let us decide. Right now, we don't want to concede anything, and we especially don't want anything to be conceded on our behalf. Let us fumble with it a while, and decide for ourselves whether 85%>0%, and whether the difference of (I think) 2 slots out of 316 is a deal-breaker.

I bet we're smart enough to figure it out.

Even if we don't turn this down, it will feel good to do it ourselves.
My rep says there's a lot of good stuff in it, so we'll see... I'm getting no indications it'll be put out for memrat, though.
