What seat and categories are you displaced/reinstated to?

This makes a lot is sense. I think the federal loan is there for the taking for a while - regardless of our debt load. If we think we needed $10B+, you get the money that hardest to secure first. Then, if things stay bad and you need more, you go get the sure thing.

The pilot group is angry at management for all of their past failings and will say "No" to anything they propose, even if it was free Chick-fil-a on any trip that touches ATL.

I like the idea of working less hours as long as it doesn't involve working for less $ per hour. There is a big difference between a rate cut and an ALV cut.
There is a Chick fil A in DTW and MSP. Why do I only get free Chick fil A if I pass through ATL? That smells like a concession to me.

I think it will be lip service and a waste of my time. Not trying to be funny, this is a serious post.

To sell concessions

Some are highly influenced when the big guy gives them some “close held info.” We had a C44 FO rep selling the pathetic 2015 TA 1 deal because “he saw the inside numbers“ — “Delta was done making money.” Next several years, Delta had most profitable run of multi-billion dollar profits in airline history.

He won’t show up considering he’s too important to go to the White House.
