Well my reaction is twofold, vote no and send in my renewed DPA card.

I agree with the poster that indicated "why rush to a substandard agreement?" The profit sharing check is going to be real $$ the way the contract is written now. If the company is so determined to lessen the percentage they must know this is likely to continue.
It's gonna take a good bit more than 9/9/6/4 for me to vote yes on anything that degrades the PS payout. It could easily be 25% this year.
Time value of $$ folks.

We'll get credit on the next earnings call.
Bastian will tell the analysts that the new pilot contract is not only self-funded, if you count the loss of profit sharing for all employees then the company will actually have lower labor costs if ALPA signs this deal.
Now that right there is some constructive engagement.

Wouldn't this be more like 6%?
Delta will make $6 billion this year and $10 billion in 2016.
Why would we self fund? Why would we accept date of signing hourly rates less than those that are 11 years old?
We send boy scouts to negotiate with gladiators.

My rep (whom I trust) said this is leak is straight from the company to put negotiators on the defensive and induce some pressure to finish the deal. He assured me no deal is imminent.

Interesting. So a coordinated leak from management that included some Wall Street players.

Machiavellian brilliance, actually.

Iow, it dis-incentivizes switching between planes which are in the same pay band.
I can be very much for things which streamline company operations. This one, I can't get on board with because it has the potential to require double digit percentage fewer pilots. And not to be oblique, but that could be anywhere from 10-30% fewer (somewhere in there) at various times.
Two new words for the day dis-incentive and oblique. "Give me underboob or give me death." What Nathan Hale really said.
