The point I was moreorless trying to make is that I believe contract negotiations are about realistic leverage as opposed to equal amounts of give and take.
To ask another question. How was the $2.1 billion distributed? I'm assuming this was small payout to each pilot after the pension fund was liquidated. Is that accurate?
Contract negotiations are always about leverage. There will also always be some give and take. It's the leverage that determines the percentages of the give and take.
