They can still attempt to change the CBA after the purchase and I'm sure that will be the plan. The CBA does not prohibit them from moving all the Delta flying over to the SKYW certificate. What do you do when they say they will move all the Delta flying to SKYW and furlough 700 if you don't relax the CBA, or if you do relax the CBA XJT will get all the future LAX flying including 70 seaters and there will be very few if any furloughs? They are creating leverage and will buy XJT within a month.
the scope prevents them from that hence why they need it gone. Not saying they wouldn't try it but that why the scope should stay in place.
