The data is there if you look hard enough. You cannot deny that AA, UA, and DL make a majority of their profit on credit card related income. Would they be profitable otherwise? It’s hard to know since the model is so intertwined. AA probably not. Do they have other revenue streams? Yes. But not the same scale as CC. Even if 50% of the other income was CC that’s still well more than tickets generate.

he’s being a little sarcastic there … the union did not tell us “what’s coming”. They literally just summarized the 10Q.

While your MEC will continue to fight for jobs, protections, and career security, each pilot must ultimately decide what is best for themselves and their families. We urge you to take a clear-eyed look at your personal situation, explore all available options, and prepare for a range of possible outcomes.”
