UAL/DAL/AAL and New Contracts
Any estimates as to when we're going to see new contracts at the Big 3?
I know there's a few threads in the individual company forums, but for those who aren't at those companies and don't have their fingers on the pulse, are new contracts imminent or are they still many moons away?

According to the union, they’ve only offered a total of $28 million in improvements on the sections that have been negotiated.

Curious when I’ve read over various contract talks . ESP when talking about the flying during last summers months . People talk about how crazy it was and how many premium / green slips were given etc , IMO company could care less until they actually start canceling flights due to no crews available.
At United summer can get crazy with the premium flying , and all the line people talk about how short we are , yet our cancel rate due to no crew is something tiny like .001 . So per the company we’re staffed just fine . I’ve read about Delta’s summer last year and how it was crazy, but were any flights cancelled ? Due to crews ?

It just makes ANY give/“concession” painful if (WHEN) it happens.

Its been proven, it’s simply “cheaper” understaffed I’m busy months and pay premium vs well staffed, then over staffed once busy months come.
When you take into account the big picture cost per pilot, etc.

I think this is exactly what they’re expecting. I just hope the economy keeps singing for a couple more years. I actually hope it keeps singing for another 30-40 years, but I know that’s just being irrational.
