-If you've been here a long time, if this TA would've been passed down 3, 2, or 1 year ago even... Would you have voted yes?

-Are we OK giving up Scope and other protections that are afforded with a yes vote?

-Do you really think Allegiant won't merge, buy, or be bought by someone in the next 2-5 years? What happens if we vote no and they announce a merger while we wait for the new NC to gear up? How would you feel?

-If it took 2-3 more years would you be ok suffering with the status quo and walking away from an extra 30-50k in compensation each of those years?

-Are most of your issues with the company related to CBI/Merlot? If so, maybe things will get ALOT better with this TA.

I think it's best to think of this contract as a 'bridge contract'... Bridging us to where we wanna be, whether it's a legacy carrier or as a decent starting point when we merge down the road. Life is about compromise and as it sits this isn't a horrible compromise.
Agree with this 100%.
