The longer we wait, the higher the chances of something happening which decreases our bargaining power.
I would love to see our contract increase in value, but having to park large numbers of aircraft due to lack of crews is the kind of leverage that necessitated the pay raises at the regionals. With our training pipeline wide open and currently being filled, that is not currently leverage that we enjoy. I will continue to have trust in our Union leadership to make the call on how we handle the situation going forward.
