You kid when you discuss self help right? Have you followed the NMB at all the last 15 years?

Perhaps one strategy of the timing of this is to have the mediators establish the “zone of reasonableness” which they will then work towards before any contract gains are achieved at other carriers. Just a thought.

If neither side petitions the NMB self help could begin as soon as negotiations are discontinued. The company runs the risk of immediate (10 days) self help if they fail to negotiate and don't go to the NMB. For this reason I think they should have to make the request on their own. The joint request serves no purpose. We have and are willing to schedule sessions and negotiate. The obvious meet in the middle over time that would result is not acceptable to the company so they have to take this course.

On the other hand, what reasonable judge/person would say "hey they're making 5+B a year and they want to reward their labor with scraps..."?

that is a very good question. Never in airline history have companies been making so much money. Is this something our Union is allowed to use as an argument in front of an arbitrator? In other words, if an arbitrator or mediator wants to base discussions on "past precedent", that precedent no longer exists. Delta is making so much $$, yet will a mediator or arbitrator see that as a reasonable argument? Hey judge, they're making money, we want some of it.
