Seriously....did anyone else here talk to the P2P guys a few weeks ago??? The COMPANY has been trying to close the deal but hasn't been bringing a big enough pot of money to get the NC to agree. Clearly something has changed.

If by 'WE' you mean the pilots via MR, I think the last no vote was 1997 (mid term wage adjustment). If 'WE' means the MEC, I don't remember the last TA they voted down. There are a lot of reasons they vote the way they do so I wouldn't say they supported everything the sent to MR. If 'WE' means the Negotiating Committee, I'm pretty sure they've been saying NO a lot since Dec 21.

My conversation with the P2P guy was very insightful. I doubt he told me anything your reps can't tell you on the phone.
Not specifically aimed at UA, but you are the first. Every single contract goes past amendable date by a few years, and retro is never 100%.

Novel idea, why not reduce the amount of contracts we have by having longer contracts?

(Or at least have cola past amendable date?)
