Even if that language doesn’t exist it’s hard for management to point to a bankrupt contract in any potential mediation. Making what master of puppets said pretty much irrelevant,
it’s not irrelevant because when things go down hill there is now a precedent. One airline had its pensions gutted in bankruptcy and then they all did. One airline gave up scope and they all did. So if you give up DC then we will all loose it.
the precedent isn’t just set on the way up. If Frontier and Jet Blue go bankrupt it will be the Spirit template they will follow as fellow ALPA carriers.
