I've been saying this for weeks. Their metrics are bad and getting worse. Latin America is in free fall, and has been for the last 18 months.
The company is spending money like it will never end on frivolous things like uniform parties and repainting brand new aircraft. Delta and SWA are going to eat us for lunch if the leadership doesn't get their crap together and start tightening up.
We're buying last decades aircraft new vs used. Other carriers are riding out the low fuel wave using paid for aircraft, paying down debt.
For the conspiracy guys, federal law dictates this sort of guidance, not contract negotiations.

The airline isn't going to be making record profits forever and as soon as oil comes back to a more realistic price it gets even worse.
Fact of the matter is what do we do in 2020 if the economics just don't allow for increased pay or better work rules?
Someone please enlighten me?
There have been so many other what ifs thrown around but the most import one is what do we do if the the industry is just marginal again in 3-5 years?
What kind of leverage will we have? Industry lagging pay and **** work rules, sounds great to me.
Let's vote no!
