Landgreen,
This is not speculation. Call your reps. If these items don't get negotiated with a possible AIP 2, they will be negotiated between SWAPA and SW. ALPA will no longer exsist at Southwest after and ISL by arbitration. Do some research.
I see the 717 paying what it does now, I don't see Gary stepping up and paying comprehible to the 737. Just my opinion. The other items will be hammered out too. Those are the facts dude.

Red,
There won't be a long term B-Scale, and you know that. This ISL is important because seniority is everything in this business, and ALPA just rammed a rod up your keester. The eventual award could be light years better than your offer. Look at recent awards for the possible answers. Nowhere has one group had 60% of their people go to the BOTTOM 20% of the combined group, especially when both carriers have the same type planes, same business plans, have valuable assets, and aren't in the tank financially (like F9 was). AT is not that bad, and you know it.
It's too bad the Airtran MEC took that offer as a slap in the face, and the added "we can't pay you the same now, it's off the table" really doesn't help either.
GODSPEED RED.
