Take it for what it is worth. I think regardless, we should be leading in ALL areas so this is a concession.
Ummm.... NO!! Delta can not take another large RJ until:
1. Ratio of 50 seat RJs are parked.
2. Ratio of 717s are delivered. (Over 1 year after DOS)
3. Total ASM, Aircraft and seats at DCI decrease and mainline block hours (not ASMs major difference) increase.

Big guns,

I'm not saying you, Delta, can take more RJs. I am saying that when you ratified your contract, the company could start taking advantage of the Scope clause. United TA makes the company wait a year. The company then said no equal Delta rates until then. That is why we are -8.5% for year one.

Let's say you and I start a new thread and go "head to head" on specific issues one at a time 'cuz I'm thinking you are an easy kill.
Yikes...did I enter a UAL Mgmt TA justification 101 forum?

Interesting that you should champion the "set the voters' expectation" approach to selling this industry lagging agreement. Picking and choosing metrics to substantiate a position for the sake of garnering support. Seems some in the flock seem to have strayed from the definition, or simply chosen to redefine, "industry leading"...

I've been on both sides (CAL and UAL) of the fence as this scenario has unraveled; having worked under both contracts, this agreement clearly doesn't meet the requirement of "industry leading", no matter how you choose to measure.

We'll get what we "deserve"...whether we choose to ask for it or not.

Cheers,

They cant take advantage of the scope clause until the first of the 717s are delivered.... that is the trigger.

Thanks. I thought your deliveries where scheduled pretty quick until recently hence the company could start moving. My company was told no scope until 2014 and then tied it to single isle. The company pitched a fit so withheld the 8.5% because we "aren't like Delta" until 2014.

Btw...I think Anderson was brilliant by setting the bar on all contracts while he had the chance to with United and AA in negotiating spots.

Ahh I see you are like everyone else . . . so your argument is you have the facts and I don't and you'd like me to believe I'm an idiot because you say so. Try picking a topic so we can debate the point instead of throwing out some trite generalization of how I'm a management stooge which I'm not 'cuz I'm a gazillionaire and don't need to work (if your're really a UAL/CAL pilot you can look up my schedule Joe Peck - IADFO 756 I only work 50 hours) so I don't give a "Rat's Ass" what y'all vote ultimately, but I'm Magna Cum Laude from Dartmouth and I have actually read this contract and found it to be ahead of every contract in history. So pick you topic to debate and add value to the conversation or shut up.

Hubris and condescending arrogance. Nice. Don't be surprised when you get few takers.
