We are both on the same team here, I promise.
We will get there.
I know we're not on opposite sides. There is no way that B6 believes it will have to come close to the big 3 (or 4 if you include LUV). They will be very interested in the outcome of this vote and if it passes in the 90s, it will indicate our weakness and delay what may have been a decent TA until 2019-A goal that is widely known to exist. Do you realize the hundreds of millions they save by staving off a new contract for just 1 year? Now triple those profits if TA is delayed a few years- profits, we now share to a lesser degree btw. Eye on the prize-no mitigation is my stance. Good luck to us all
