Thats the real reason Delta wants a quick agreement. They know you won't accept the 33% reduction in profit sharing in a year or two when profits are up.
If oil goes to $25/bbl we've got a whole different set of problems. Nobody is going to be talking about profit sharing, growth or upsides.:eek: |

Copy and paste the article title into Google News, click the link, and it's free. wsj and google have an agreement.
Hmmmmm why would the WSJ outsource their work like that? If I were the author I'd be ****ed.. think of the money I am losing. Must have ALPA as their negotiators.. :eek: |

Oil went from the $140's to the mid $40's a few years back. How much profit sharing was paid out then? I recall a whole bunch of furloughs from most airlines during that time.

Economy goes down, oil goes down. Until something breaks that trend the economy and the higher cost of energy will be screaming... http://roushtransportservices.devhub...tug-of-war.jpg ROLL TIDE ROLL. :D |

I wonder what the vote tally would be if the pilots voted twice:
The first vote would be what was best for them personally. The second vote would be what was best for the pilot group. I think that if they voted for what was best for the pilot group (as a whole) the TA would be voted down. Anyway, that is the biggest problem that ALPA has, and has had the past 20 years, at least. Everyone is voting for what is best for them instead of what is best for the entire group, and vis a vis, the profession. That is why this career is where it is nowadays. I guess you could say Congress has the same problem. |

March 4, oil at $105 a barrel. June 4, oil at $82. Think I read somewhere that DAL saves $100 million on fuel costs for every $1 drop in the cost of a barrel.
