I agree with them 100%. Greed has forced us, the American worker, to accept ridiculous concessions to save jobs that aren't really worth having. The Nicholau award is a slap in the face to every professional who has ever worked to help their company. The America West pilot group is irrelevant to the fact that ALPA has abandoned AAA. I think management will find it easier to keep the two pilot groups separate in hopes of whipsaw advantages than try to implement an award that even Doug Parker acknowledged as a windfall. The west guys will still enjoy the great airline they had before the merger, and the east guys can enjoy what they had. All the east guys need to do is keep the award idle until the next merger. Problem solved.
