It is curious to me that EBA negotiations are being treated with such a low priority when, within 6-12 months, there will be the highest demand on air travel in history. That’s world wide. You would think management would be rushing to throw a few dollars and a few lifestyle choices our way, and get an agreement squared away before we gain any bargaining power.
It makes me wonder what they know that we don’t, or if they only have one playbook. Are they hoping to use this as a catalyst for lobbying the government to let cheap labour in from overseas or something like that.
