How is there no thread here yet about all the Easter Eggs in the MEC Christmas Card?

I was wondering the same thing.
One of the guys is holding an E195-e2 model in the pic and pointing at it.

It’s pretty obvious.
We are getting emb195-e2, more widebodies and a new contract for Christmas. And the other guy is whispering about reserve rule improvements and Santa is all for it!

If they will have something to announce soon, I think that this is both clever and well-done.

If not, I think that this is a bizarre signal to send given the near-total vacuum of substantive information on negotiations progress. If we knew how things were going, the intent of this picture would be easier to parse. Coded message or light-hearted Holiday fun?

I hope they have something to announce. If they don’t, this could make them look like a bunch of dilettantes when the amendable date comes and goes.

If this isn't a signal I don't know what is.

Or... Just a tease.

In 1981 I whispered in Santa's ear as well. I wanted a Star Wars Millennium Falcon so bad I couldn't contain myself. Long story short. Still waiting!!

No, it means that we'll be contractually required to taxi at LUV speeds and calculate landing distances LUVstyle. On final, you will ask for an EMAS check instead of a Delta wind check.
