The cost for cabs, or more realistically for an increased capacity shuttle system (perhaps with the occasional cab to cover rare peak overflows) is so low it wouldn't move the needle and would increase reliability and operational integrity.

Base specific COLA on the other hand is a treacherous can of worms that is absolutely unworkable.

Neither is a commuter vs local issue either. Not to mention most "locals" are still commuters.
I don't disagree. However, I find this to be a provincial issue, and quite frankly, not worth too much money. IF (as rumors are suggesting) the NY reps are passing up more gains elsewhere for everyone in exchange for something that affects so few, I'll be very concerned about their ability to see (or comprehend) the big picture. I guess we'll see.

TA is done.

Let the games begin.

Cue all the new arrivals to this board rube, professor, pilot stats, chuck essential, bender-I mean-T Square, and of course the regular acolytes like Shiz, slow and sailing, with their newly hatched talking points and message shaping briefing sheets.

This can't be true. We haven't even exchanged compensation proposals yet.

Not doubting you, but where did you see it? Also, do you know vote breakdown?

I'll start:

1. Time value of money
2. The process was followed to the letter
3. 60% voted yes, so shut up losers
4. We'll never see those last two pay raises
5. Our scope is better than Alaska's
6. The NMB would have parked us forever
7. Profit sharing was too risky anyway
8. The negotiators were going to quit
9. Delta pilots don't get sick anyway
10. Lazy copilots should fly LCA trips anyway
11. Mike Campbell needed the money
12. Those stock buy backs weren't going to fund themselves

Default Delta TA.

Apparently it is done. Debate begins, then vote in 7 days is the report.

Let the message shaping, and sales campaign begin.

The managing of expectations is over as that was what led up to now.

"Sign this deal now or we will go the traditional route" will be the quote from RA repeated ad nauseam during the upcoming campaign.
