We are in an era of Brinksmanship in management-labor relations.
Each side, in negotiations, has to have a plausible hammer to gain any ground (or stop losing everything)
Do I think a strike could happen?? YES
We should all think strike is a possibility as it will help EVERYONE working in the industry.
When you take the traveling and make it not pay off, people go back to bumming in the reserves, mortgage brokering, government employee or almost anything to escape the uncertainty. Look at the bonuses they have to pay for managers to come over/stay because the company is in dire straits. The guys I know who don't want to leave aviation at Delta are the one's coming over SWA and going to FDX.
I was always unsure if that "Holding the Line" mantra was a truism or BS post '90s, but I believe it this time.
God Bless you guys/gals at Delta. I pray and believe it will turn out well.
