The time pressure should be on their side.
Respectfully, do you actually think the company doesn’t believe the pilots are eager to get a new contract “yesterday”? Your comments are similar to those that preach “no negotiating in public”. Everyone’s cards are on the table. It’s a waiting game now. They KNOW we want a contract yesterday. It’s up to ALPA (leadership AND line pilots) to communicate that we’re NOT going to settle no matter how long it takes.
