What's the "Latest and Greatest" at UAL/CAL?

going to United's work rules and a buyout will accomplish alot.

Exactly. If the MECs get a 3 year no furlough(really 2.5) agreement, age 65 retirements will kick in Dec '12.

At Delta we had a list in about 3 months, and were flying together in 1 yr and 5 months after date of closing on the deal. What prevented furlough here was our 8 billion fleet types.

Don't think so. I think furloughs were avoided by the efforts of one man who convinced Richard Anderson that furloughs would have a negative financial impact that didn't show up on a spreadsheet.
UAL/CAL will be successful only if their pilot leaders stay focused on a long term view, and ignore the whining from the pilots who will be angry at the way things are going - only because they're angry regardless of how things are going.

Its soooooooooooo obvious; with United's 200 widebodies on property, plus an order for 25 787's with options for an additional 50 787's and Continental's 100 widebodies and all their new 737s, we will not only take over the world but a new bid is opening for the Mars sub-orbit route.
With sub-market wages, the combined entity will make enough profit to pay for national health-care.
Back on topic....
With no route overlap, the industry will not be able to compete. It will once again remind me of when I got hired at United in 1999 with Captain bids going to guys with 3 years on property

Really? Well I guess we all ought to head for the circuit court and get our BK papers in early.

I agree with the single man theory and as he heads back to the line, the combined DAL list needs to make sure he never buys another beer or dinner on a layover.
