That said this pilot group is fairly selfish and always has been. Many of us took long, unpaid leaves to try and help. Of course we all got screwed coming back to work.....We likely will face a contract gutting excursion in trade for furloughs next spring. I am not interested.

Hopefully the industry will recover steadily over the next few years. I think we'd all be safe from doom and gloom if that were the case.

They will not furlough that many FAs since they have 200 taking early outs and another 2700 have signed up for various leave programs. The company has until August 7 to award them. There will undoubtedly and unfortunately be FA furloughs, but definitely not 2600.
