A discussion ensued regarding what a concession is. Making changes to a section doesn’t automatically make it a concession. If this was the case you would never negotiate. Sometimes a good middle ground can be found for both sides. A win/win. As others have stated, let’s actually see the contract first. Not just a bullet point document like DL did. We still have not seen any language at Delta. Who wants to bet the language will definitely add some different perspectives on many of those bullet points. I have seen many of these bullet point AIP’s in my career and many times the actual language changes the conversation immensely.
every concession we've given the company in the last 20 years has been sold as either a win for the pilots or a win-win. Then we got screwed in the grievance process.
I'm willing to bet DAL's AIP truly does not have concessions. They are realizing that they NEED pilots and are opening the check book to make sure pilots come to DAL.
