This change will bring devastation to labor and all working groups, airlines being just one of the smaller groups. Right to work, NAFTA, open skies--these are just the opening shots.

The indirect battle will be lost in the years ahead, not just during the Trump administration. Labor will be set back to the stone age in the courts. NLRB? Supreme court? Once the shift in court appointees takes place, all labor law and law suites become at risk. You thought we were powerless with the Railway Labor act as it stands now? Just wait and see how much bargaining power we have after Trump gets hold of it.

Pile all this on after the trade wars decimate traffic to Asia, and the change to 67 or 70, or lifted entirely. Get to a place you'll be happy, you may be there a while.
