Yep, that did happen. UAL told us they didn't need our services anymore, so we set up the return of all the 146's to the leasing companies. Then UAL realised they didn't have anyone that had an aircraft that could haul 100 people up a mountain with all their ski gear. They asked to keep flying 6 146's but by then it was too late. UAL being the fair w@nkers that they are, decided to pull our non rev benefits with less than 24 hours notice. We had people stranded all over the world.
