some other major airlines did. Some didn’t. None of them needed to. If UA hadn’t given up line guarantees they still wouldn’t have been able to furlough like they wanted to because all of the PIs needed to retrain the widebody guys how to fly the 737 would have furloughed. They had the company by the balls and still offered the company concessions.
