Southwest CEO: AirTran Deal 'Imperative' To Counter Fuel Spike

[On Your Six]

I'm curious Lear, you say fair doesn't equal a staple. Do you think relative does?

That is up to an arbitrator or group of arbitrators. They will look over the testimony from your lawyers, read documents, and give an award. If you don't like the result from the nuetral party, then you have someone to blame, THEM. It won't be up to you or the Airtran pilots.

Well, not that we're supposed to talk about expectations, but since I already threw the "no staple" comment out there repeatedly AND, since I've already said once before that a true relative seniority solution starting at our respective #1 guys and going down isn't fair in my opinion (our #1 guy just junior to your #1 guy and so on), and I'm not going back and deleting comments, I guess I can answer your question (since I already said it once a few months ago before we were told to not discuss specifics).



I have faith that our committees will work it out.

Great answer, but even that is unlikey. If you want true fairness, you will hand it over to people that have nothing to gain in any outcome, ie an arbitrator(s). They will look at everything fairly, and rendor a fair decision based on the facts. Good luck to all of you.

I had to laugh at the naivety of this post until I was made aware of your experience level, or lack there of. Honestly, for someone who has no problem piping in on anything and everything as the self appointed know-it-all, I would've thought you a little more learned.

You have obviously never been through negotiations, mediation or arbitration. There is a reason the process goes just like that. If it were as smart and as simple as you say then why aren't both sides (or one or the other for that matter) just folding up their tents and drafting their final language for "Binding Arbitration"

Get back to me on that one.
