Do you know how many seasonals we bring up and down every year? It's mid double digits.

Where precisely in this fleet plan do you see any aircraft that will be flown to Europe that is a down gauge?

No smaller aircraft in our fleet now or in the future can even do JFK to Europe.

Please use facts and numbers.

The TA binds the JV flying. Not the settlement.

Either way, this is the deal. Attempting to force compliance via numbers has not worked in five years. This gives us realistic goals we can hold the company to, quickly.

Please take notes and ask questions at the road shows.
seriously? c'mon.....

Meaningless fluff. We just set the legal precedent that future such violations are handled by a payment. Cure bands are meaningless...that's why DALPA "won" it.

No, it really isn't. For any number of reasons. But your comment reads like a mgmt toadie's, for certain sure.

Carl

Or we could be getting 30million every year.

All perspective I guess?

Once again, NOT trying to sell anyone here.

It's the language and the agreement as it stands.

Please go to your road shows. Please ask questions.

If I hear more/better info on this from the NC, I will inform all.

I see where you're going with the downside protection angle but I'd need more data to be sold.
Bingo!

I know your job is to lie for the administration...that's what you're getting flight pay loss to do. Just understand you ARE lying.

Read the language...it's right there.

Let's not go down the road of libel Carl.

You have the facts.

Vote as you will.

Truly I do not care.

Professor,

Could you explain this one when you get a chance?

1.E.9.

The Delta MEC Chairman may, at his option, approve the use by a carrier engaged in international partner flying of a trade name, brand, logo, trademarks, service marks, aircraft livery or aircraft paint scheme currently or in the future utilized by the Company or any Company affiliate.


Where did that come from? And why?

So Carl is right. You are a liar. You just proved it.

Way to out yourself.

Question of the day.

I don't know. And it freaks me out.

I'll find out.
