I assume SWA (who are also in section 6 negotiations) will see an increase in pay but I'm not deadset on it like the carriers above.
UAL and NWA have a few years left on their existing deals.
I know Spirt is going to mediation but don't know how that'll go.
Take if for what it's worth I don't think we will see major narrow body domestic guys take a paycut anytime soon.
