Out of curiosity, what would stop these unions from just striking illegally anyways? Seems like at some point, it’ll be the only way forward if these co’s keep turning to binding arbitration.

Peoples willingness to do things that are illegal. Workers died to give us unions and employment law; its important people don’t forget that.

And look at that.

Once the government says “nope, we’re not gonna force a settlement”, the issue is worked out and apparently the pilots’ union is happy with the agreement.
