I'm OK with VB as a 1 year trial but do have one particular concern with this program, and maybe I'm just being paranoid but here it is:

Suppose we go through the 1 year trial period and the company goes out of there way to soft pedal it and really highlights the value of it to the Pilot group. Minimal complaints, many happy commuters so we codify it into the PWA and it becomes permanent.

Well at this point the company starts to change how they implement it - all while remaining within the PWA. It now markedly affects Bid packages and not for the better. Well at this point we stuck with it.

Like I said - I am OK with VB but perhaps we should retain the ability to pull it down unilaterally because as pointed out above the company can implement it any way they want - slowly at first and then show its true colors after it becomes permanent.

We definitely do not want to hear - "We did not think that they would do that" regarding the VBs.
