IOW. I have seen many comments to the effect of give me Delta’s agreement and I’ll vote yes. What if we take Delta’s agreement, improve on that as well as items specific to our contract? Four years since the amendable date and ten years since a contract spells the need for a lot of improvements.

Delta’s TA is a double edged sword for us. On the one hand, it creates an “industry standard” that is well above what we were willing or able to do when we were in their shoes. Reasonable expectations are shifting well beyond what many here were considering just weeks ago. On the other hand, it establishes a precedent that will make it very difficult for us to significantly exceed. For my part, I think our best contribution to the industry standard will be holding our ground that our pandemic 5% is kept separate from section 6 negotiations. This will further lift Delta through their snap-up clause the way they did for us previously, and increase the expectation for those who negotiate after us.
