Anyways, time value of money. There. Build towards the next contract or go nowhere. Look at SWA, five years overdue, do you want to go down that route if you could have improvements across the board TODAY?

Improvements such as, fewer RJs at DCI, better productivity balance with JVs, pay raises in section 3 with DOS increase starting this summer, less at risk pay, and improvements that lead to more first time Captain opportunities. And then more in 3 years.

Our do you want to go the SWA route?

The RJ problem is going to take care of itself. Just like 50 seaters were on the way out in C2012. Regionals can't staff these things. There is no reason for any concessions to reduce regional feed.
