There have been many Chairman's Letter's, communications updates, and even a "mission statement". I haven't seen restoration mentioned even once in any of that. I am quite certain that management is paying attention.


Look, I'm all for getting C2K and then some, but post bankruptcy there has been one TA. That was negotiated on the front end of one of the worst economic downturns in history with oil skyrocketing. Not exactly a strong time to negotiate more money.

That being said, I agree that restoration should be a goal with the next set of negotiations. Management owes this pilot group raises for the things we've accomplished since the merger was approved. We worked our butts off to get intergrated, and achieve an SOC. LCC doesn't even have a single contract yet, let alone a SOC. We did it in what I'm sure is record time, and we did it for the biggest airline in the world. That alone is worth restoration IMO.
Thanks. I'm really glad to hear at least someone say that!
