If you're asking about maintenance, I can't help you other than every group gave concessions - some groups more than others since US set targets for each group that matched the percentage of employee costs of each group to reach the total "give". So if a group represented 20% of employee costs and the total "give" was $1.5 billion/year, that group would have 20% of $1.5B for it's target - $300 million/year. Apparently like at AA with the TWU, the IAM represented more than just mechanics at US. I think there are 3 "class/crafts" that fall under maintenance & related and have separate contracts but 700 could give the details.What did you guys lose in BK#1?
If you want pilot into I can give that.
Overall, I believe BK 1 resulted in about $1.5 billion/year in concessions from employees before the pilot's DB pension was terminated just prior to exiting BK. In BK 2 it was about $1 billion/year. When adjusted for size, US' employee concessions in 2002/2003 were greater per employee than AA's, as is the case with the 2004/2005 US concessions vs what AA wants now.
