Or did someone loose position at the bargining table?
a joint contract was agreed upon just not the seniority list.
scope needed to be relaxed on deltas side. (to allow nwa's international flying) that was the leverage for LOA19. if nwa was the surviving carrier then they would have held the leverage not delta. this is how it has been explained on here.
