As I said I just think it’s interesting that pilots come on here KNOWING what will happen. None of us know we are all just guessing. Maybe Kirby is being honest that’s definitely a possibility.
But If that guy/girl is a super senior WB captain it’s amazing to me he believes any CEO. Especially given what has happened in his or her career.
Did you see what’s happening at spirit? Did you know their CEO said ehhhhh we are financially fine. Apparently not.
As others have said we just don’t want to be out of a job. If our current leadership turned it around and they just might be I think everyone would be like great. It’s not a want to fly for United it’s a want to not be spirit right now.
I totally get it. I was at NK and saw first hand how Ted would say one thing and do another. I’m not saying every CEO is honest. I’m just saying Kirby has been honest thus far.
Personally, IF a merger was going to happen under Kirby, it would happen in the mid-2030s after United Next is settled and all the planes from Boeing are on property. Watched interviews with Kirby and this seems the most plausible (imo, could totally be wrong).
