See if the flying comes back before October and beyond on 90 day projections. Who knows maybe therell be a second stimulus. In the meantime just be patient we don't know anything yet.
I agree with patience, but lack of discussion and particularly communication from our ALPA MEC on Reduced Credit Lines, SILs and reduced pay leave is disheartening. I would have expected ALPA to advise against taking unpaid leave if they truly wanted the company to take future negotiations more seriously. Did we get anything for standing on the sideline while thousands volunteered away their compensation for two positive space tickets they could have more than purchased with what they gave up?
