Every Rep I have asked has easily stated that no negotiations are in the works over a mid term or early agreement. If there was they would be jinking and jiving around the question.
That said, it could change.
I suspect that much of these extension rumors are put out by the company to gauge the reaction of the group.

Since the company will do everything possible to keep the union at bay, the FAs bascially get every QOL add-on we negotiate.
The company has to cost out everything we negotiate for us...for them, too.
I'm thinking about pushing union cards on them on every trip.

Well, since I'm a company man, I'll help them "gauge the reaction." Here's my reaction:
**** off. This one's going to cost you.
along those lines, is DALPA going to be "transparent" and "communicate" their opener after they submit it?

Hmm.......are you still buying Canadians beer? Hoser likes beer. Beer good for belly. Belly is under-boobs. Beer make women prettier. Pretty women have underboob. Beer make underboob appear easier. Therefore Hoser love beer.
(I wonder if I'll ever contribute something useful to this forum)

If AS truly has very little scope protection, is this going to be the next end-around on our scope clause? Someone like SKW flies a hundred seater at RJ wages full of DL pax with an AS flight number... They undercut us on costs and take our flying again?
