If you have, what feedback did you receive from them, is it different than what the union offers the pilot group through their communications?

Looks like DP is betting the farm on a fast recovery, he might as well AA is probably the most likely BK candidate if this doesn't turn around quickly regardless of what their managers do.

Southwest Airlines is betting on its history of growing out of economic slowdowns to be among the first airlines to resume a full flight schedule after the coronavirus pandemic.
On Thursday, the Dallas-based carrier extended its schedule through Jan. 4, 2021. The plans call for about as many flights as it flew at the end of 2019 by the end of this year. That includes growing the number of available seats for sale by 10% or more at its bases in Denver (DEN), Las Vegas (LAS), Nashville (BNA) and Phoenix (PHX).

We cancelled the May bid but still created ~18 pseudo positions so newhires could still slide in. Companies don't have to but once in a while they do the right thing. In any case they're permanently parking E190s, 757s, 767s, A330s. 4 entire fleets gone and parking 80 or so older 737s. The math isn't looking good for any airline.
