I guess I'm missing the connection between anything we've negotiated so far and ALPA. If you meant the current contract research, we're still several months away from opening our negotiations. It remains to be seen whether anything ALPA (or anything the other consultants have provided us) will prove useful.

Simply put, the SWAPA guys are simply buying data from ALPA. The SWAPA guys take the data and use it for thier negotiation purposes.
ALPA hasn't told SWA anything. ALPA has simply provided a (valuable) service to the SWAPA pilots.
IF SWAPA was big enough they may have thier own E&FA.
