Gotta push back on this a tad. We (IBT) knew this date was coming. We should already have a pretty good idea what the language should look like. We aren't re-inventing the wheel here, there are half a dozen superior CBA's where we could grab their language if needed. For instance, Spirit has nice hotel contract language. Just take theirs and spiff it up. This isn't rocket science, just pattern bargaining.
