How many pilots does UCAL have on the west coast anyway? If SEA can grow significantly, and all signs point to that happening, and if LA grows even a tiny bit and SLC stays the same, with the movement we are seeing there will be plenty of west coast opportunities for new hires unless they have some irreconcilable precondition of walking into a west coast base in year one no matter what. In which case I'm not so sure UCAL will always be offering that anyway.
Yup. UCAL is giving up gates in LAX, isn't even trying in SEA, but does remain in SFO.
