If we had signed off on Tumi we'd have been making those rates for Two years and would be negotiating now...likely close to this agreement. Opportunity cost is a thing.

How about cause there are multiple threads right now discussing a range from not a huge deal to United pilots are almost scabs if AIP gets voted this in? Go to there if you want to discuss it. Hey why not have a good thread on SW’s medical freedom as well!?!

Mario’s vote today will make no difference

MEC will vote in couple of hours today and for sure they will send this to MRAT.

Pilots will decide and in my opinion this will Pass and it’s an easy pass

The 14% bonus pay covers pretty much all positives that Tumi would have given the pilot group without the concessions.

nope, I read it and just disagree with it., you sound like you’re trying to sell someone else’s opinions (unless in fact they are actually YOUR opinions and are passing them off as soemone else’s )
