You guys at CAL/UAL MAY hold the line at 50, but I doubt it. More than likely, you'll allow a limited number of 70 in exchange for concessions from management.
But mark my words, you will NOT eliminate all brand RJ flying.
I won't disagree that ALL branded RJ flying will be eliminated, but not because it's "sold" by senior folks. I'm guessing management wants to keep it as badly as we want to shed it. It will be THE defining issue of the JCBA.
Your forecast, now that I know what it actually is, has merit. Nobody ever gets everything they want in negotiations, and I expect there to be compromises in all areas.
