I was with Comair for an 89 day strike in 2001. Our MEC wanted to stipulate that ALL CVG flying would be struck work, and specifically city-pairs that had be specific to Comair, so that DAL could not add "segments."
The ALPA National folks and DAL MEC refused to accept that. But that was okay. Because they said so.
Not.
