AAL has nearly the same total debt, it's just held in different categories.
NotEnuf, thanks for pasting that. So funded by 2031. Nice to see they contributed in 2015, my Reps had stated this was not the case in the years prior.
What did the DALMEC Com twitter feed post from the EFA Brief this last week? How much have we seen year over year in fuel savings? How much is our profit projected to be this year (Not CTX capital but DAL's statements in their earnings reports) and how does that compare to the years past?
Where did all that extra money go?
What was the FX headwind last year?
What are they saying about the US and global economies?
We will make money no doubt, and decent money, but you have to look at where the profit came from in 13,14,15 and where its going to come from in 16. You need to look at how much of the 16 profit will be fuel savings vice prior years. What are the other carriers doing? What is your SWOT analysis and how can UAL and AMR and the ongoings there change the pricing dynamic. How does labor mitigate that thread?
Its still a very good environment to negotiate in, but there are waring signs there to the comfort level of new large pilot labor checks and the willingness that a corporation will have to sign those. Negotiating thru a downturn doesn't benefit this pilot group.
