Thanks for the support, but the notion of urgency is of no help to us. It could be a long road ahead. Striking a concessionary deal quickly, just to "gottir done" would be foolish.

I disagree. It's almost benign in the AIP form.
Sick and VB are the ones that could legitimately have QOL impacts, and sick has been targeted to be renegotiated (it's already far better than the previous 2015 idiocy).

I have decades left. I can wait a couple of years to not accept a bag of crap with a few dollars staples to the outside.

Google and read as much as you can on the RLA and NMB and their philosophy on controlling negotiations.

History says you can wait but in the end you will get the same basic contract. It just happens years later. Delta in general got their contracts done close to on time. Other airlines fought for years almost every contract. In the end they would sign a agreement within 1% or 2 % of what they could have had near the amendable date. Sometimes they signed for less like AMR's prior contract. The lifetime loss of earnings doing that is staggering even if the contract you sign may be industry leading.
