It won't affect the Shadow MEC, so it's all good.
So give me a honest comparison with the current fleet plan of which overall section 1 you would prefer in 3 to 4 years. I will take the TA any day. Our average aircraft size is going up. AF/KLM is going down. Each Alitalia flight that becomes a Middle East code share must be dropped from Skyteam that day. That combined with the increase in size will easily bring the company into compliance with the current scope for the next cycle without adding a single flight. We will have a much more enforceable measurement period in the new agreement. The 1.81 block hour ratio is huge on the domestic side.
There is a lot wrong with the TA. Scope is not the issue.
