Wait for correction and reset of dollar. Gold and silver (physical) is best bet. Or short market like I'm doing.

Virtually all other airlines (FDX and the regionals, too) are similar to what we have (with varying recovery obligations).

It is a MAJOR concession that will affect all FOs as well as junior CAs.
It does affect Junior CAs or NB CAs who just bid over for their first CA seat and uttered the words "What the [radio edit] was I thinking?"

And plan to bid back to WB FO.

He's one of the "Shareholders" that Richard is so concerned about returning equity to. Of course Richard and Sleeping Beauty (Ed) are two of the other largest private shareholders too...

BS, It's common fact. I pay over $800 a month to stay plugged in. Follow the crooks the fed and top analysts names. These guys didn't get 3 decades of credibility being wrong. PM me if you want facts.I been stock analysts for 30 years. March of 2009 was well known before it happen. THERE will be no PS after 2016.

I recommend timing the market... and buying Gold...and taking investment advice from anonymous internet pos(t)ers.

SD:
This [TA] includes industry leading pay rates and additional narrowbody aircraft to continue upgauging the U.S. domestic market with efficient aircraft that improve our customers’ flying experience.
Pay rates and 739s and E190s if you agree to say yes. Why 739s and E190s? Because they upgauge, are more efficient and improve customer experience, i.e. they make more money and attract most customers.

So what if we say no? No 739s and E190s? They'd give up all of that because we didn't allow 25 more CR9s?
