Now scope.
The American and United union leaders both made it completely clear to everyone in their management day 1 that scope was off the table.
The DCI 70/76 seat fleet is twice the size of any of our fleets. Let's give them more!
Because you are lying to the pilots about basic facts.
UAL: concessions were baked in from bankruptcy.
FedEx: there were work rule concessions including changing a big money DH item amongst others.
UPS: made concessions to get their rates. call it what you will, they were efficiency gains for the company.
SWA: also made concessions and went five plus years for a deal.
So you want to revisit those?
