Default Scope question for you guys

FDX guy, here. I got a question, if you don’t mind. A big point of contention in our recent TA is scope. Basically, at FDX, only flights that touch the Lower 48 are protected. Many of us wanted your scope language. However, our MEC insists that protections for extraterritorial flying are unenforceable under the RLA. I have been told that the IPA’s language protecting 7th freedom flying is nothing more than a promise. Is that true? What do your lawyers say? Thanks in advance.
