“RJs over 188”. The network has 188ish operating right now. If I understand it correctly, the 35 we are talking about is above 188. So in DALPA’s email “RJs over 188” refers to these 35 only.

My educated opinion on that, would be Delta mgt claiming force majeure on the ability to implement flow down at another carrier during the pandemic, and CARES act. The arbitrator will likely grant some relief on that, the extent of which, is unknown.

You must have glossed over the meaning of latent ambiguity...it can be clear, specific, non-ambigious, straight-forward, plain as day language that is ambiguous due to circumstances.
Can DALPA show that it was operationally reasonable for Delta losing $20+ million a day to keep Compass open? Or was that out of their financial control?
I know we all have our biases for wanting to believe something to be true...but the unbiased look is that Delta and DALPA both think they have strong cases..the answer is probably somewhere in the middle.

I feel like this is likely as well. Delta may have been banking on it from the start when talking to there lawyers before offering the flow.

Well then nothing to worry about...Delta will lose those 35 planes in arbitration, it's clear as day, no reason to even talk about it, right?

That said, I'm not for the give in scope...but I certainly do want contractual progression to Delta.

You might be right, but Delta doesn't need a strong case...it just needs any case, since the burden is on DALPA. DALPA must prove that it was unreasonable to interpret the contract in any other way given the circumstances and that Delta was at fault for doing so (I.e, it was not beyond their financial or operational control).
That said, I'm not for the give in scope...but I certainly do want contractual progression to Delta.

So let me guess, you want DALPA to give in to scope relief and negotiate something in return, which then allows for 35 RJ’s to fly permanently? Which of course, would allow you to flow, permanently.
You most certainly are for give in scope as long as it generates contractual progression for you.
It’s not very difficult to read through the incentives of a 9E poster on a DL thread.

Amazing how desperate some of you are for flow, JFC.
