Pattern bargaining

And that's over 75 years of history for each of our airlines in negotiating that very first contract and then building on it every successive time we get an opportunity.

I think one other thing we can talk about with building contracts is pattern bargaining and looking at other carriers in the industry, building on those over time.

So in terms of that pattern bargaining, Drew, why don't you talk to us about what that means for us here and what we're trying to accomplish with the JCBA?

Pattern bargaining is, I think, something that we have seen work really well, especially in this last cycle, sometime around 2021 through 2023.

What we're really trying to point out here in this discussion is that not a single pilot agreement is negotiated by itself in isolation, not being impacted by what is happening at other properties.

Every single pilot group on their own benefits from the standards that other groups have helped establish.

This is the third of three Detroit automakers to negotiate with Unifor.

Can you just remind us what was gained by GM and Ford members in their deals? Because we know Unifor bargains under pattern bargaining, meaning whatever the first automaker agrees to, all automakers are expected to follow suit.

So what did the workers for the first two automakers gain and what are they looking to sort of impose on Stellantis in these talks?

Yeah, that's right.
