There can always be a multi-pronged attack with regards to union leverage. The loss of UAL NH/Indoc pilots to Delta is probably where the major forces are amassed as far as pressure on management. And to think, it's not even a "tactic" that the union controls. It's management scoring an "Own goal" in the World Cup finals! OOOps!
Who wudda thunk?
Management, are you listening????

Leverage lies with the negotiating party that is most satisfied with the status quo. I think this is a rare case, especially in aviation, where both sides won’t be satisfied with status quo. Both sides have a lot to lose with this dragging out, not to mention Delta has now given us a mediated benchmark.

How long were your classes? Hmmm… if I spent another few weeks at the training center, I could have been a pilot

The first time I sat reserve as a half winger was FAR better than the second time almost a decade later as NBCA. Same contract.

After the last year, they’ll be tightly measured in the way they deliver any good news. They’re no longer just managing a negotiation, they’re also managing the sour mood of a tired pilot group that has shown its taste for recalls.
