I have heard nothing about a union but if there were, it would have to be the “Wheels Up Pilots, Operators, and Workers” union. WUPOW. Otherwise, I’m not interested.

Nah, even with a cool name I still wouldn’t be interested. Unions create 2 problems for every 1 that they solve in my experience. My opinion is subject to change if KD leaves the picture and someone else takes over and starts running us like a tyrant though. I like working for KD. He has never treated me wrong and his brand has been my lifeboat through the worst crisis to hit aviation ever (I think?). Some bosses deserve unions, not leaders like KD. Maybe that’ll change at some point but so far, I don’t see how a union could make things better here. Things have improved every year without collective complaining and our leadership is accessible and open to suggestions.

... But WUPOW lanyards would be pretty cool though. 👊 💥
