Well, the only good thing about pessimists is that that all their surprises are pleasant ones.
Guys, it is what it is. People bid for contracts. Sometimes they get them, sometimes they don’t. When the contract is coming to the end of its term, sometimes it’s renewed and sometimes it isn’t.
Whatever the result, it isn’t going to be the end of the world for anyone. Rarely in the past two decades have the opportunities for airline pilots been this good. And given age-related retirements at the majors, they are only going to get better.
Management has far more to lose than the pilots do if these contracts aren’t renewed or replaced. You have to believe they are aggressively working the issue.
