The majority would still want a union and be apart of one in the airlines. The airlines like Jetblue, Fedex, Allegiant, etc., have joined unions after realizing the benefits it can have and tired of Management pushing them around. Some like Skywest, still go without one, so it still would work fine without the RLA act. Probably even better since we could have more freedom. I am also no expert though so I could be wrong...
