I believe this is correct.
Obviously, if this thing goes on for a year or more then yes the company will probably ask for concessions. But I think all the airlines are in a wait and see state right now. Most of the CEOs have even put out statements thinking this will only last a few months. What’s the point in asking for concessions now, when in a few months it’s very possible that hiring will be ramped right back up to where it was a few weeks ago and every new hire has options again? There’s no point even from a management perspective.
Come back to this thread near the end of May or middle of June and if improvements still don’t look likely anytime soon... then you might need to worry. For now, I don’t think management will ask for concessions anytime soon.

Schedule type items I could see since all of the departure boards are 80% red in all the airports across the country right now. l don’t think pay will be looked at for at least another few months. I could also see leaves of absence being offered that are less attractive than what mainline was offered and the union is probably trying to get something similar.

None of what I said was advice. Never said yay or nay to anything. Just offering my perspective on how I think things will play out. But you’re right, where are my manners? I forgot no one ever comments on another company’s thread. Excuse me. Maybe if I would have posted all doom and gloom like everyone else you would be more accepting.
