If the merger really is a done deal, everything that can be wangled out of NK before then is all to the good, because we’ll get another turn at bat for the JCBA anyway.
No, we need to be working on a LOA with 40% raises across the board. Not current B6 levels. Remember ALPA and mgmt met in DC weeks ago then Ted walked away from the table at Frankie’s request. Following that LOA we get started on our own improved CBA. We worry about ourselves right not. Not B6. Lots of boxes have to be checked first. A kicka$$ new CBA just helps our possible B6 brothers down the road. That’s where Our focus should be!
