My opinions only as an informed outsider; Outside of mediation/ strike release I see little chance of Delta offering more money, they will rearrange the deck chairs when they/DALPA re-engage. Remember, they are trying to keep unions off property and if they reward you with big pay increases the other employees are going to take notice and vote accordingly.
We are
never going to get released to strike.
We should just put that out of our minds.
We don't need it anyway. Step 1:
If management won't up their offer then we should make it our #1 priority to organize the other employee groups and not stop until every living soul at Delta Air Lines except Bastian and Anderson are members of a union.
We start with the flight attendants. In 2016.
Perfectly legal under the Railway Labor Act and it will damn sure get management's attention.
