I honestly find it hard to believe they would exceed our QOL (at least reserve QOL). I think it gets tricky if they start a snap up war with Delta while basically matching our work rules. I could see a scenario where the path to DL and UA making 10% more than us becomes apparent.
Best-case scenario would be to suspend the vote, amend the TA to simply match the pay, and then reconvene on a new vote. Worst case would be our TA gets shut down and we go to mediation. I think SK would like nothing more than to shoot our TA down and kill the momentum of AA's turnaround. It can't be a coincidence UA is seemingly days away from announcing an AIP right when we are gearing up for the vote.
