I agree...it'll be more difficult, but...if they can convince the administration and the public that jobs won't be lost and over the long-term jobs will be created...I think it would happen. IMO there'll be 3 global carriers left standing after all is said and done: Delta(Delta/NWA), United(CAL/UAL) and American(American/US Air). Do I want to see it...if no jobs are lost and both pilot groups get a better contract and all furloughees come back when the deal is closed...then yes.
