So back to the OP. In your mind What does the Next CBA look like? What do you think is Attainable? ( I assume you work here. Please tell me if I am wrong)
I do work at Frontier.
If it’s just a straight contract negotiation, I think whenever it behooves Barry, and not a moment before, we will get a contract that is significantly less than industry standard in all respects voted in out of exhaustion and frustration.
To get industry standard, the union has to convince indigo (Barry) that an industry standard contract, which requires retooling the entire airline, will be more profitable than the sale / leaseback scheme. I think that is beyond the scope of what a union is responsible for.
It’s either that or find an entity that would be willing to buy Frontier and run it as an airline.
