Did United run the largest displacement bid during Covid? Now it’s reported United wants 400 a month.
Scott says United has the best geographic structure to succeed, then on here, a poster says he said United doesn’t have a hub monopoly like ATL or DFW.
At AA he said iPads replace seat back screens, at United they need to keep screens. At AA they need to compete with Spirt heads up, at United just run your own show with excellence, let them do them.
He seems like a lawyer that can argue both sides of a case, and on both sides of the issue make himself sound uniquely authentic. Seems like if he is a good as he wants everyone to think, he would have done better at AA or left sooner.
I think of you had any experience flying for either company, you’d realize that (at this moment in history), there isn’t much of a comparison between the two airlines. Kinda of like comparing united to delta in 2010.
No one is knocking AA pilots, but that airline is not in a great place. So, you can attempt to discredit SK, but it won’t make AA’s prospects look any better.
And btw, he was promised the CEO job and was fired/left the same day it came out that DP no longer intended to make good on that
