It would be terms for an extension, NOT a Section 6.
Leaving the work rules alone is a part of how an extension provides stability and why the company would offer it in lieu of a full rewrite.

Not really. Take AMR out of it for a second. DFW is the biggest domestic growth market in the country. We were fools to leave it. Wright Amendment goes away in 2014. We are filling up our jet out of Mia. Both make a ton of sense if the dominoes fall correctly. (with or without a fragmentation of AMR)
Delta needs a hub in the South Central part of the us.
Before AMR's filing the DFW gates (all of em) are up for new leases and AMR is going to shrink.
If we opted to forgo DFW and or MIA long term it would be to the companies detriment.
Airlines like ALK would also fit to make the hub and spoke work out of these cities.

I too will be floored to make it to April without an offer that is just good enough to send to memrat.

Ok.
How does the company benefit from only 6 months more of stability when they will get 18-30 months of "status quo" out of the Section 6 process?
Keep in mind we merged MX stores systems a few months ago and just resolved the last union integration issues a week ago from a merger that occurred almost 4 year ago.....
You have to make it worth it for everybody involved, and unfortunately the company holds 99% of the cards.
If we as a pilot group entertain an extension that is substandard then I agree we should go for the full Section 6 and skip an interim agreement.
