If he wants concessions, it needs to be from a record breaking, industry leading contract. Otherwise the bleeding will continue. The question is how long does BB want to remain CEO & in business? RPA is NOT a publicly traded company so no shareholders to please. He does need to focus on pleasing the employees or he will have no employees. Ask Eastern Airlines how that worked out.
The media will downplay it until after the elections if they can ignore the growing unrest that long.

Edit: Preliminary 2Q22 GDP will be released 28 July 2022. Until then, educated speculation and a quarter will get you a cup off coffee.

The rjet management played this card years ago and ended up running everyone off. Rjet hasn’t been the pillar of pilot contacts very long. Rjet used to be a crap hole where pilots only got paid when the door closed and god be with you if there was a delay. With todays pilot market, they are heading down that road again. If they pay $70 hr for an FO they may make it through this, if not they will be gone in 2-3 yrs if not sooner!!

Additionally, idk a single low-ish time FO getting on over there from RPA. 3 people were in JB’s NH class. Average flight time to JB from RPA is around the 2200 TT mark. But again, you’d know that if you were in any of our FB pages

you guys are having to much with him/her lmao
maybe just ignore them…and they’ll go away lol
