BUT....BUT
We have to judge this document on its merits and compare it to what the alternate outcome is. I don't believe in any possible way that we would achieve another AIP for at least a year. Are the holes worth holding up for a year at the earliest? I haven't decided yet.
Please explain in detail what's so "scary" about the LOA. I'd love to hear it. Two of the biggest desires of the company are held back until basically LCR and redeye protections in Section 12 are implemented. For the record, Sabre was given a laundry list of items and requests of how long to turn on, they gave us times on almost all but could not reasonably pinpoint a few.....hence the backstop date of Dec 2019.
The company fought for years to lessen the grip of the Return to OSP language, which is by far industry leading. Also, the company has a strong desire to fly to Europe, so Section 14 is extremely important to them. Both of those items are restricted until ALL of our stuff we want is turned on.
