Rule #1: No Scope Sales - that is somebody's job you are trying to sell.
Sailing's additional 120 minutes to long call is worthless. Been used all but a couple of days over my entire career on mostly reserve. With the number of short call windows and the length of rotations this is literally a "no cost" item for the company.

If we lose the arbitration (and I tend to think we will) then we will be angry, but our public options are limited by the fact we pushed the process to a loss and the public will want us to respect the process.

The company offers something of value for bringing the aircraft online. Say a 14 hour long call. The union has to decide if taking the long call verses possibly losing the arbitration and getting nothing is a smart move. As I mentioned a arbitrator might provide discreet guidance which way he is leaning to try and force a settlement.

This is why we should be informational picketing... We should not have ceded this issue to arbitration when we had a better forum to fight this fight for jobs; in public.
If we lose the arbitration (and I tend to think we will) then we will be angry, but our public options are limited by the fact we pushed the process to a loss and the public will want us to respect the process.

If we lose, we lose. But we send the message we aren’t willing to negotiate scope away.

Are some of you saying the 35 RJs are non negotiable? Since these RJs (CRJ900s and/or E175s) are fairly new and have been flying in the system since the arrival of the 717 if DALPA wins the arbitration I think the company would be willing to pay a pretty penny to bring them back instead of burn $100s of millions in aircraft expense.

Delta's outsourcing of the same class and craft of organized labor is morally wrong.
Hundreds of millions does not make it correct. Each new hire's career is probably worth $10,000,000 or more (depending on the age they get in the door). Taken from either perspective, the right thing to do is to have Delta pilots perform Delta flying.
