Us as well. Although I've never seen any pairings built that way yet. Only limos have been re routes or reserve stuff. Wondering if they have to divest much in FLL they will push harder into PBI and MIA. I guess time will tell.

The email didn’t disclose what the relief was, but guessing something like trip mix requirements or additional average line value relief.

Last time we gave them relief for that with the 220 BOS base we wound up with in-base layovers correct?

No. Last time we DIDN’T give them relief, so they found a way around the contract by using in-base layovers.

Exactly ☝🏻 not saying they union isn’t doing the right thing, but be careful of unintended consequences.
