It’s the safe move in my opinion. On the flip side, never that I’m aware of has any pilot group been given a 30% raise prior to the amendable date. We have so much leverage that seems like a once in a lifetime opportunity to say FUPM. Depending on who I’m talking to and their vibe, I can tap into either of these points. Both are valid. I’m still a no btw. For the “Street Cred”
We'll be back to the table with nothing to offer in any JCBA. With today's result, from this point forward we have nothing to offer as a pilot group. We're done. Good bye drops. No way does B6 consider reducing compensation to keep our green red and drops to zero. At the least, a NO would have given us the reasonable ability to voice merger opposition to the DOJ and muddy the waters.
