I have heard this is was a big sticking point and why compensation issues had yet to be presented to the 'company'. However, the UAL contract has both the 747 and 777 under one pay rate, so I don't see how that would affect current SLI issues. And FWIW, I think that was ironed out in Denver last week as it really isn't an issue in SLI because the two aircraft contractually pay the same. An issue for the future JCBA? Yes. An issue for current SLI? I think not.
