Old-timers may recall that a contract agreement was never considered imminent until the Negotiating Committee had resigned and been replaced. I think it was some kind of ritual or something.

We may see some serious drama tomorrow.
This is going to be one helluva union meeting.

Every Delta pilot who can make it should attend.

Renaissance Concourse Hotel
Atlanta Airport
9:00 AM

Its the hotel right next to the training center off Virginia Ave./Loop Road

Your dues have paid for parking and food. Might as well show up.

I think you will be allowed to attend. You should attend. However, it might be prudent to not speak. Keep a low profile.

Free food on probation. Hell yeah you should go.

We've been down this road before, with C2012 and other items, and the politics are 100% predictable by now. Just because the accusation is launched pre-emptively, doesn't make it true. In either case, it's politics.

I was just wondering why there are so few rumors, and none positive. How do the +'s never make it out? If someone is leaking, why not leak enough to have a comprehensive view of the deal?
