Sounds like the pie is plenty big. We just need to stop being convinced we don’t deserve our slice.

No wonder SK and the Toddlers were so anxious to get a deal done. This and the BOD of course.

United beat Delta this time. Please keep comments respectful.

Doesn't this mean that United has to have 4 consecutive quarters at a 5% margin or better? We did not meet that theshold last quarter.

I can't quite comprehend this. It's like reading Greek. Is this quarter the first time we've hit the 5% margin since October 2020? IF so, when do we see the raise?

My guess is another two quarters. The 12 month look back at the moment still puts us at -3% due to the large loss in Q1 22. Until Q1 22 is no longer in the calculation, it’s unlikely we’ll reach the 5%, unless Q4 is a huge blowout.
