Silver going independent had nothing to do with United. They did it for future codeshares. We would have never gotten an agreement with JetBlue if we were in bed with United. IOSA also helped with that.
But yes, we could very well lose our benefits: No pilots=no flights=no airline=no benefits.
...and I'm pretty sure dmncnpilot was being 100% sarcastic.
