Well, the nice thing about being union members is that we do not have to fear management or the elites, nor keep our "mouths shut." I guess you have never been to an airline shareholder's meeting, most of the speakers are employees.

Not sure where you are coming from, with your comment. In any case, prior to Crandal's frequent flyers invention, the playing field was reasonably fair. Today, we have a class of business flyers spending their company's money to accrue miles, just so they can use them as personal perks. Try to take them away and they squeal like pigs and claim that management is incompetent. I guess we sometimes forget that it is all about them, the rest of us should just keep our "mouths shut." The real scam is that these same companies deduct this travel off their taxes, so we all pay for these elite benefits.
