YES, demand drop-off is unprecedented, 40% decline in bookings, parking 300 airplanes, uncharted territory, no downplaying, but what many have been saying on this board, Delta (and United, AA, etc) could be in even better position, sorta like Apple, cash hoard, helps in lean times. Might not be sexy for stock price, but builds a solid foundation.

Can we change this thread title to "New LOA" or something else? TA is misleading.

Thanks to the company and alpa. All we can deal with is what we have in front of us today. Those who want to address stock buy backs, pensions or whatever else there is a time and place and it’s not now. An overwhelming majority of us want this company to not only survive but prosper. I would invite anyone not willing to help to be the first to take a voluntary furlough when and if they happen.
when this is all over and we can negotiate again we can go after all those things |

Exactly my point, doesn't affect you much so you don't care, and belittle those that do. Again, we should have had a vote on this.

Belittle? Your hole must have a lot of lotion in the bucket on the rope. More than where I’m at anyways, skin isn’t as soft around here.

I'm not really seeing where allowing an April re-bid with lower ALVs is a blank check.
The LOA essentially making any corona related issue free sick leave and also SILs and no 5 year Mil Leave cap for the next couple months might put enough guys off payroll (or reduced payroll) that we don't have some chaotic cluusterfox displacement bid, or at least minimize furlough pain. I'm not really seeing where we had any "give" beyond rebid April. Lines are still 65 MIN unless you bid RLL right? Reserve is ALV-2, min of 72? Barring the last couple months being an anomaly for me, I'm usually at 72 or less when you factor in mil leave. |
