It doesn’t officially say it, but it implies that the current system, they’re sun setting, didn’t have any type of annual fee.
If that is the case, then yeah, I would do the same thing and just not use the program. might be able to backtrack on the agreement to work with the gov as well and just go back to the old system for crew members. Makes no sense to pay more on a system that was working fine as is.
The airlines are in a pretty massive advantage here, delays for flight are already pretty heavily protected legally, as in there are laws baked into the system protecting/restricting airlines being sued for travel delays.
Worst case scenario is they can’t go back to the old program and they just cause mass delays which they can then directly blame the government for with no monetary penalty unless it goes over I think it’s a 6 hour delay.
