AS/HA JCBA is heading into years territory, at least a couple. It is more complicated with all the WB stuff, but I have the sense that company is fine with lower costs on the HA side for a while longer.

SLI might grant them more flexibility but it might also open up a lot of short-term training churn as people bid into newly available opportunities (especially in our case). So I wouldn't automatically *ASSume* the company will want it quick.
The order of JCBA then SLI is codified in ALPA policy and hopefully every ALPA CBA. I'm not sure if that's entirely up to the pilots unless it's in one CBA or the other. Might have to hash out the order with the company as part of a TPA. But yeah there are several good reasons to do JCBA first.
So I guess it comes down to what scope language SY has?

I would assume that this merger will get approved, quickly.
