At this pace 2020 looks like a realistic timeline for us to wrap this up.

I currently pay $600 a year out of pocket for parking. 100% not reimbursed by the company, and can't get parking at an airport that id like to commute out of, because the company refuses to do the paperwork. Parking is a big issue for me personally. I can't always itemize and 600 bucks is 600 bucks.
Personally I was glad to see parking issues were being addressed. I'll bet we are getting closer to about 50% of our pilot group being commuters, so yeah it's an important issue. No offense intended.

Unless the union pushes a sub-par contract in hopes of getting it done sooner. Which I have to admit that I'm a little concerned about.

This is nothing new in this industry gang. It's been going on since the start of the airline industry.
How long did UPS just negotiate for their new contract? I think it was around 7 years.
SWA just wrapped up 4 years of negotiations.
Unfortunately that's the game. Get used to it. Be prepared to see it through.

My buddy at AA pays for his parking at the base he commutes out of also.
