How long for a contract?
It’s seems like senior captains in the 8-10 year range and FOs in the 1-2 year range are jumping ship faster than we could recruit them. Just wondering is there light at the end of the tunnel here or are we in full blown Stockholm? No airline got a contract under 3 years with the exception of UPS and their TA extension. Will we be the exception?

Most union guys I talk to are pretty intent on thinking it will be end of winter/early spring.
The company came to the table with stuff in hand. They are losing a lot of employees. Lots of money. Lots of investors starting to question them hard. Metrics are in the toilet.
