Thanks Riddler. This will eventually get interesting if integration takes a while. You will have the most senior United furloughees presumably get hired at Continental. At some point United will recall those same furloughees, most of whom will leave Continental and return to United, creating a training nightmare at Continental. I am not sure that this was thought all of the way thru in the transition agreement, or perhaps, they were just optimistic that the JCBA and SLI would be completed very quickly, which doesn't appear to be the case. If 300 United furloughees were hired at Continental and then left to return to United, and the cotal cost of training including salary, uniforms, IOE, housing, per diem etc were $50K/pilot, that would equate to $15,000,000. A bit of a hit to the bottom line. Whatever the number is (I had heard 50K in the past), insert it and do the math.
