I don't think the company considers/cares nearly as much about the contract as the pilots do. If there is an airplane order, they will strategically place the purchase or announcement of the purchase where it best for the company and its shareholders. Sorry but we really aren't that important.

Just seein how much time and effort the company puts into keeping costs low I think theyre very much interested in our contract. As far as labor goes we're the most expensive component. As far as announcing aircraft I don't think they're concerned about the contract, I think their more concerned about where and when will be the best time to do it.

I didn't say we aren't important. I said we aren't THAT important😉

Yeah I'd agree with that. We pilots arent important but the amount we cost the company is.

Ditto! So nice to be informed, finally.

On another note, did council 18 recall that rep with the racist fb comments about management? We don't need that negativity with our new regime.
