It will sustain it long enough to get to the next downturn in the pilot hiring cycle. The company is banking that the amalgamation language in our scope will be affirmed by the arbitrator by then ( maybe ruled on as soon as this Fall ). If so, AAWW will never have to engage in good faith negotiations or have any future CBA pass a vote. Amazon and DHL will have their labor costs locked in at the lowest in the industry for decades to come.
