Delta Air Lines hosts May analyst meeting on May 11, 2017 | Delta News Hub

Now that the Aeromexico JCA (JV) is up and running there will probably be strategy talk about this model going forward. Korean next and possibly others.

Delta and Aeromexico to launch Joint Cooperation Agreement | Delta News Hub

Amazing to see how quickly they are "moving in." The A terminal in Detroit was about 50% Delta, the rest was Air France, AeroMexico (including an Aeromexico Connect E-190), and Virgin Atlantic.

I'd guess the A terminal in Detroit is 99% Delta. AF has one flight a day, we picked up the second London so Virgin has zero flights and I've only ever seen one Aero Mexico flight.

This.


Reason takes away from the narrative. Carry on.

I did see an Aero Mexico E190 and 737 sitting next to each other last week or the one before.

Bump...

Tomorrow. 8:30 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. ET

Why we would ever again consider a reduction in profit sharing for pay rates is beyond ignorant.

You must fly out of a completely different terminal A in DTW. Last week almost every gate was full. Not a single aircraft that was not Delta. I think I saw a one AF flight there a month ago.

Might he mean the checkin counter space and not the actual concourse?

I never have nor never will vote YES to any TA that has us "swapping or trading" profit sharing for pay rates. To do would show extreme ignorance not only of the mindset of big business but of history.

If we were to swap 1/2 of our profit sharing for rates the following would happen. We would originally see a little bigger bump in pay rates that would smooth out to neutral (if we hadn't swapped) by the end of the contract. Then when the next TA was negotiated we'd be at ground zero on pay rates and negotiating vs. our peers at the "neutral" rate.

In essence we'd see a small one time boost for that first year at best or better $$$ as a result. Then we'd be gauged and compared against industry average... now we have those rates at or slightly better than our peers PLUS profit sharing.

I'll never vote YES to any contract that cuts profit sharing. Don't fall for it.
