Except we are multiple contracts by multiple airlines past the last time that happened. The DL MEC, which was already very well dug in against larger scope jets, just took an even more hawkish turn as well with recent elections.

If there was a time to get this done it was last year or maybe this year. Both got rejected incredibly hard at DL. One as part of the only (and resounding) TA rejection ever, and the other a groundswell rebellion that was nipped in the bud before it could even get put to paper in the redo.

Its never looked less likelier going forward than it does now. Yeah yeah I know, they'll offer us one trillion dollars for one additional seat and the trends will continue to infinity and beyond!
