I have, to date, seen zero from either UALALPA or UAL management hinting at paycuts. Not much overall news, except that we can expect to be offered more leaves of absence (0 hrs pay) and surplus reduction lines (50 hrs pay). If one views those as paycuts, OK - but not a pay rate cut.

It's safe to say that there are some pretty intense discussions going on right now at all airlines and I'm sure there's a whole gamut of options on the table at every airline. All we can do is prepare for the worst and hope for the best.

We're all in the airline business so we're all screwed. Take care of each other and watch out for fellow workers who get deeply depressed - there have already been a couple of suicides out there. .

In closing, this calls for a little bit of Ozzy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9yYJ6ZAYns

All the best to everyone.
It has been determined that the OP over on the United thread that started that, had interestingly enough, created that username in March of 2020. Seems to be a troll account.

Outside of Oscar and Kirbys letter there hasn’t been anything.
