Meanwhile at United, there is the potential for Captain positions to remain unfilled in their next bid, leading theoretically to street Captain positions. Something to think about for those coming to class soon or among the more junior.
UAL buddy said street captains can’t happen under the current CBA. Require hours at UAL which pretty much eliminates probies. 2nd yr is possible though if you hate yourself or live close to EWR/SFO
