You can't just add 2000 pilots to a list and even mixing them in a percentage a month would take years.
Has something like this ever happened before, or just a carrot to keep people hanging on through the holidays, or until the next CPA is up to speed?
I don't see UAL purchasing us and stapling the list, but running it as a wholly owned. Currently, UAL is the only legacy not doing this and I think they will see many of their regionals parking airplanes if they don't jump in. As it is, I think a very small percentage (if any), LASA pilots who are making lateral moves are going to UAL feeders. Almost all are going to DAL/AAL feeders.
