After C2012, a couple of things happened. Bastian stated in a conference call that the profit sharing was going to pay for a portion of the pay raises. Delta invested in Virgin Atlantic, a refinery, GOL air lines and bought 76 seat RJ's.
If after C2015, they repeat the same pattern. Will any of you yes voters feel a little foolish? In other words, why did the company need concessions?

Contract savings for DAL = an Asian partner to fly our passengers!

Did everyone miss the news in the past 10 days that Skymark Airlines has approached Ed Bastian about DAL investing in them? They have some A-380s on order and don't know how to pay for them...and DAL needs a partner in Asia...

It starts as something small. Easy scenario here.....In the future we are short staffed and company comes desperately to MEC chair for emergency authority to allow Delta to crew 10 A330's by foreign crews. This proposed TA gives the MEC chair that authority to grant it. Will all of our intl flying go away immediately? No. Just a little at a time as those 10 A330's slowly grow to 25, then 50 etc.
It is truly a massive poison pill. So is an 8% raise worth the risk of losing your job or future wide body job?
Don't think one person can be corrupted or make a bad decision? Go read the Spirit Airlines thread.

None outside of just the scope language. However its a thumbs down because the power is given to the MEC chair rather than by committee. Nobody likes it when one person holds the keys it destroys the system of checks and balances.

Given MDs unexpected and inexplicable decision making, it's a huge thumbs down. If the rumors are true he settled the JV grievance alone without committee approval for pennies on the dollar, in a midnight meigs field bulldozer style move. Change the wording to Be a committee decision and it will get a thumbs up.
