I think your confused, people want to go to AMR for their W/B, not lackluster N/B rates.

I want AMR’s retirements and widebodies, that’s it. They by far have the worst contract of any of the big 4.
we have profit sharing, but not as good as others. Managements initial contract opener had the same formula as deltas so better profit sharing is on the way.

many QOL work rules need to be addressed. Along with better LTD and a few other things. I’m sure some will be fixed and some will remain the same once we get a contract (been in negotiations for a year now).

FWIW on the APA forums most guys are negative (like all pilots) and assume that this will somehow reduce our narrowbody flights into Seattle. Hopefully it’s a win win for both sides.
