Union is nice, but it is still held back by the industry average, and there’s as many union as non-union airlines. It’s been a lot better since Covid for us but my point still stands that the skilled labor list is BS and as you well know there is a lot of skilled work in this field, but it’s categorized incorrectly as a way of keeping costs low. From what I recall, Delta was the biggest player in that lobby effort.
