Dot connectors?
SWA is delaying 737deliveries. Thoughts? Is it really capacity management or are 717's still in the fleet plan longer than expected? Meh...probably nothing.

All I know is they got the language, not what is in it. They are going over it line by line, interspersed with Regular Business. Its closed, and so are the lips of the Reps. Don't ask em what they cannot share. Don't waste their time, they need it to debate each other.
My assmption is the leaks are not from the MEC.
Back to condo shopping.

So far i've been satisfied with my reps on answering my questions and all regarding this contract. Both reps in my council respond my emails within 12 hours, and seems like they are not just trying to BS their ways, or trying to spin things off their way.
With that said, we still have a lot of work, and I'm anxious to see the language for myself.

Keep in mind that a lot of their new 737's were ordered to replace not only the 717 eventually but also older 737's which they have the flexibility to keep around a bit longer if they want. So it could mean either or both.
