Yet they refuse to even lock in a portion of the gains since then in our CBA. That's troubling. Especially since, supposedly, the VX/AS merger is guaranteed to end our code share forever and ever (which I'm highly skeptical of BTW).

As for the NC, don't take my word for it. Ask them yourself. This really isn't even disputable and I don't know why you would even challenge it. We tried to get it, the company said no way. Ask anyone on the NC and they will tell you.

The real question is why did the company say no way? During a low water mark in the code share...you know, the one that's juuuusssst about to end forever and ever any second now...supposedly?
