I was thinking the same thing, the timing is suspect.

Will this payout trigger a mass resignation by the FAs? Take the money and run?

If it is substantial I think you'll see quite a few take the bait. Why not? Their job is absolutely terrible.

Maybe. But included in their LOA is an early out cash offer to the senior FAs as well. It seems the company wants "juniority" in our largest labor group. Makes for a good bullet point to investors...

We must be coming down to the wire on the IPO. The underwriters are most likely throwing numbers to the company that they want fixed before the stock issuance. Hence this buyout. We can only pray that a new pilot CBA is on that list.

Well the mechanics got a contract last month- the few Mechanics I spoke with in Den didn't sound to excited about it. I think $35 hour top scale. Not sure how that compares to others. But they're done - now you have the FA - LOA so maybe there is something to what ALPA keeps saying by end of year ?

I think timing is not in our favor if an ipo is around the corner.

According to a conversation with B.B. (the FAPA Invest guy, not the lardass CEO), he believes a partial - not full - IPO is nigh.

I feel your sentiments!
What do you suggest we do as opposed to follow the process?
