How are the contract talks going? Any progress the last couple of weeks? Heard this was a crucial time.

There will be a major STRIKE in the a…one that will top all others. CNN, Fox News, and MSNBC are already preparing for the DRAMA.

It's (negotiations) nearing an end game. I believe like most companies they want to get to a 30 day cooling off period, hoping that the Union will flinch or blink as the case may be. Of course that goes for both sides we hope the company flinches as well. I think in the end our NC isn't asking for too much, the writing is on the wall and our FOs who are grossly under paid along with our captains will get their much deserved raises.

Thank you, Max.

Next few weeks are going to be interesting as the numbers come out. We are finally going to see exactly what we are asking from the union and sooner or later the company is going to put a counter proposal out there and show us how much they value our hard work. Expect to hear alot of management spin about how our proposal's cost increases will prevent us from being able to afford future deliveries.

I told my wife today we need to find another couple hundred bucks to trim from the family budget until things have been resolved. Luckily my wife is a FA and understands the battle. They are in negotiations for their next contract (it better be after ours).
