the pay rate is whatever it is April 1st. This LOA is part of the CBA. So although no one can ever guarantee that a CBA won’t change for the worse, it will have to be done by a bankruptcy judge.

It sure seems like AA is taking the lead here and doing everything they can to reduce costs quickly. Delta on the other hand.........not so much......... Ya gotta wonder what is going thru Delta Managements mind at this point.

It would appear that AA is making rational business decisions vs DAL's emotionally charged worries.

They see value in paid leaves for others, trying to break us.

Delta management is worried more about red carpets for first class entry than survival! They were so used to spending there pile of money on frivolous things that now when it comes to saving the airline they our at a loss.

Anything can go away in bankruptcy. If AMR, UAL or DL want to force pilot concessions none of them need to file for reorganization. All 3 contracts are amendable.

It now has been more than a week ago, but when American first offered early retirement I bumped into one of their pilots who was taking the offer.
He said that the original wording of the offer as it came from AA management was a copy of “what Delta is offering to their pilots”.

I don’t know what to think about it. Maybe delta management discussed it behind closed doors and somehow it got out (among the top level brass of the industry) while it was yet never offered to Delta pilots?
