As far as “wasting the union’s time”... if SkyWest has it I don’t see how it could possibly be a hard negotiation.
A few years ago Delta created the new S3B1 travel priority. They gave it to Endeavor so that we are above all other Delta Connection and still below parents and retirees. SkyWest at the time had active Delta at the same priority as us S3C and the priority was date of hire. Delta wanted better priority on SkyWest, so they negotiated for S3B1 on their flights. Which is still behind active SkyWest and their parents. But it does put them above all other Delta connection carriers. I suspect that's when SkyWest negotiated for registered companion. They got it because Delta wanted something.
