The negotiating committee is about to serve the BOD a proposal. Even with the BOS, ORD, and LGA capitulators I don’t think it’s going to be enough to vote on. We have a massive amount of leverage because AA screwed up training so bad.
This is going to be fun to watch. We can’t man what we have. Add in retirements and new aircraft and then you have a massive conundrum.
Only a great contract could solve their problem and I am not holding my breath for that.
