You will know the party is over when most of the stuff in the crew lounge is in Spanish.

I figure it will be in French. After all, isn't that what the universal language of aviation should be!?!

Isn't there standard language in the PWA regarding JVs where we don't have an agreement?

Yes and if you reference the union pages on scope they break out the growth to Mexico. It’s been proportional according to the union.

That was the plan, but Waterloo happened.

Yes there is. It’s what I consider downside protection. We basically have to keep flying the same amount of block hours as we did 12 months prior and each quarter (I think) our revenue block hours under the deal have to account for 75% of our revenue under the deal.

We don’t have anything that says if you grow these markets our share is to fly xx% of those growth block hours. All that being said, everything I’ve seen thus far (which is just the info ALPA has put out) looks like the company is keeping the growth balanced. Good for us but not exactly guaranteed for us.

If only Napolean hadn't had that hemorrhoid flare-up. Think they were only on Preparation-F at the time.

Wellington also credited the timely arrival of Baron von Badflaps and his musket regiment. 💂
