Hello
Hey everyone, I created an account just to respond to this thread. I think this Operation Orange is a bad idea. As a matter of fact, it's probably the worst idea I've ever heard of. I agree with the goal, however I do not agree with the strategy. How do you think the general public will view this when their annual family vacation gets screwed up because a bunch of largely unionized (union = bad in 2011) Airline Pilots (airline pilots = rich) decided not to fly? Its not going to end up the way you want it to, that's for sure. It could.....but I would say the chances of success are about 10% at best. If a crazy group could pull this off be prepared for mega-cabotage. Not this United/Aer Lingus testing the waters, *****footing, trying to gain leverage on their union stuff. No. With the support of the general public, most Republicans, some Democrats, all CEO's, and Fox news this will happen overnight. Think things can't get worse? Please. Non-stop DTW-MIA, ORD-LGA, ATL-MCO.....on Mexicana. I like the unity and I like a good plan as much as any other pilot, but find one that the public will support. I'm just trying to figure out if the CEO's are all in cahoots and thought this up cuz they would be the biggest winners. Are they this smart?
