it's the carrot in front of the NWA pilots. the sooner you give into deltas idea of a SLI the sooner you get the raise. there is no incentive for delta to negociate, only nwa.

besides the pay if you decide to furlough and delta has a no furlough clause and nwa doesn't, who gets furloughed? if it's only nwa then that is a lot of leverage for delta pilots. I don't know if it works that way but if it does, and you start furloughing, you have to ask yourself would delta pilots just walk away at that point.
