We have the worst reserve rules in the industry.

We voted in union leadership years ago that was more pro-company and more dishonest than SK. Think about that for a moment.

A PIC at a ULCC comes here to a commuting gig in a WB on reserve for 2 years while having a contract that is years upon years overdue, with a pilot group that doesn’t seem to have a good handle on the collective labor movement as a whole.

There is a lot of risk here for someone that already has an adequate career. United has a lot of wonderful things, but some aspects of the company, union and outlook are disappointing.

Predicting that ULCCs are unsustainable and will go BK? That’s a bold move considering the UAL history. Time will tell if we can learn from our mistakes and have some humility in the future.
