For right now, being junior (not just reserve, but junior line holders also) at United with our current book discourages people from filling vacancies. That won’t change until the book changes. The company can either address that problem or delay aircraft deliveries and slow the planned United Next expansion. This MEC is focused on the right deal, not a quick “temporary fix”. It’s refreshing to see.
