Agreed. I was always curious about "who" had more political clout in terms of getting the NMB to lean one way or another.
If the Big 3, SW or any other much larger and politically connected airline can't get the NMB to favor the labor side of a competitor (and therefore benefit themselves in the process), then I have a real hard time believing anyone at F9 ownership/management has the political clout to sway the NMB the other way. Overall, the general public doesn't really lose that much w/ a week or even a month long strike at F9 . . . our share of transportation is fairly small.
Now, if Trump or some other influence WAY up the chain is anti-labor, then perhaps there is something to worry about.
