If it was just about qualifications they would simply pick names out of a hat to fill classes.
This would be fine if they held the standard across the board of what it is to be qualified to move a United passenger. They have plenty of people moving around on aircraft operated by places that have little to no standards. The mainline pilots have the gumption to speak down to those that go to places like Norwegian. The previous poster said the acceptance rate on this sham is around 30% . What are they supposed to do? Live off of their parents forever.
