LEC 77 - make sure you attend the LAS meeting on the 16th it's time for an old fashion recall on JA from the LEC. Be there or be square, I am coming all the way from DFW.

Your goal is Jetblue today? Cmon man. They are negotiating too. Are you ready to live under a contract for 10 years that looks just as pathetic as our current one. That's what Jetblue today will look like in a year. If we seriously have guys that think that is a good deal we have bigger problems than I thought.
I just said I wanted to be compared to our peers and B6 is a direct peer. I didn't say anything about wanting their current rates. You can be unrealistic and demand legacy rates but good luck with that.

Ok i got ya. Sorry.
I do wish people would stop saying legacy pay and retirement is unrealistic. It is not as long as we stay unified. The last decade has beaten us all down. Now is the time. They can afford it and they will pay it if we stay unified.

Defined pension too, UPS and Fedex has it and they're our peers because they fly airplanes too. Plus we deserve it.

I remember when I first got here, there were numerous senior captains bragging about how Spirit had exclusive rights into Cuba...

defined pension "A Plan"
Mr. Feng, I don't think spending negotiating capital on an A plan would be wise. DAL, AA, UAL all lost their A Plans through bankruptcy. A robust defined contribution is your money irregardless of the company's financial health. A much better option.

He was mocking me. Feng is the resident expectation adjustor. He sees my expectations as unrealistic.
