Could you imagine sitting across the table with this circus act of a mgmt team playing these endless games and stall tactics? I've heard that the NC has leave to take a short breather before getting the update out. I know I'd need a break!

Word on the street is it didn’t go well. Company isn’t budging and mediators are doing nothing as usual.

How would higher labor costs driving down margins thus driving down the stock price help with an IPO? The goal is to get as much capital per share, not less.

If no deal was reached during this weeks sessions, did ALPA ask for the proffer of arbitration? Or has the can once again been kicked down the road a little further. It takes a while to craft the "sorry guys, were all screwed" email, so probably no communication today. I say there will be even more negotiating sessions after the first of year. I'd say pass the popcorn but this sh#tshow isn't at all entertaining.

Uh, yeah - but having outstanding labor issues put a big question mark on a company's future prospects and investors don't like big question marks.

The filing for the IPO was 8 months ago and nary a word from the company since. Who says they still plan to IPO us? In my opinion this has little to no bearing on how they chose to negotiate with us.

There are no big question marks when dealing with the NMB. Look at their history. Very pro-company. The new lanyards should not mention a year like the current ones do. If we don't sell out this will be a multiple years long battle.

I was addressing a narrow question, don't get ahead of yourself.

I am curious, what street were you walking on when you heard this information. Are you a pilot with F9 and just haven't updated you info?
