I'm not saying it's forcing them to the table but changing any contractual language now that would benefit them is crazy even if it means we have to continue sitting on the van for 40minutes. Btw, my understanding is that it's about $10 million a year not just 50 bucks. Not just the transportation specifically but changes to the hotel section that would maintain or improve the pilots qol and save the company $10m a year. I don't think this is the place to discuss those specifics though. And that number only grows as the pilot group grows so yes I do believe we a good about of leverage in this category.
