Assumptions going in:

717s were coming anyway negotiations should only cover pay rates on any new plane...not whether the plane is being bought.

Profit sharing funded "raises" all other increases were inflation adjustments to bankruptcy rates.

The company now does have more planes than at the merger, in numbers. There are significantly fewer of the biggest jets.

Hiring frenzy is at least 80% a result of retirements...compare post merger to current day.

30 day months account for a 3% manning cut.

DALPA neither demanded or got anything except furlough protections. They only got lucky with a smokey back room promise of growth vis a vis 717s. They caved hard on scope.

Our gauge is smaller.

New hires, don't get caught up in what happened before you got here. Whether it is better than the military or your last regional/airline has nothing to do with whether concessions occurred. We have fallen far. It was way better before, do not be afraid to vote it back to how it was and should be.

I am sure I have left some things out that were clear concessions in my view. Did some good come? Absolutely. Not nearly enough.
