3) Versus DL all work groups are unionized & UA FA’s living on food stamps and are in a frenzy
4) UA TK has 20 year old CFI’s in Aviate teaching systems to upgrades & new hires
5) The few extra WB’s UA has more than AA/DL are consolidated in unlivable cities like SFO/EWR that people are leaving; enjoy the commute w/ no bookable JS
6) UA still can’t seem to beat DL in profitability/awards/metrics despite massive Crowdstrike handicap
From one kool-aid drinker to another. I salute you
1) Zero people were forced into the left seat. Not a single one. It's easily 5 years to even be competitive for narrowbody captain on the current vacancy bid.
2) Almost 10% more ASM than #2 Delta. More aircraft. What other metrics do you want to use to measure "biggest airline"? Number of hats worn by pilots? Misplaced ego size? OK, you got us.
... You're not worth the rest. Sorry you had to settle for an Air Line, sounds like United HR did a fine job when they sent you the TBNT letter.
