I understand your predicament However? This might be a bridge too far.
More Mainline airplanes is one thing. Another fleet is something else.
As Powerful as ALPA is you might have "gone around the bend" on this one.
I don't decry you for trying but ALPA has no business in the fleet makeup department. Especially since you can fly whatever they bring through the door. you can take this for what it's worth. They're NOT buying any new SNB so you might want to re-negotiate that scenario to more of the narrow bodies we REALLY need because the E180/195 isn't it! Especially NOT flying where the Company intends for them to GO. We've got A320's and 737-700/800's for that and possibly some returning 737-500's.
Just a matter of opinion. But you're wasting your Time.
Perhaps you didn't read my response above or Sleeve's. ALPA is not in the fleet makeup department. The company can buy/ bring back all the A319s, A320s, 737s they want. The more the merrier. No restrictions. In fact, UCH has taken delivery of 25+ 737s this year. They just won't be able to get more RJs. And that's fine.
