So, dont let some clause that you hear make you actually think something wont be done.... Money always settles things, you will be surprised how cool money is LOL
Maybe so,but give us ONE good reason United would want to buy awac ?? Why would they need to?
To own a load of old,worn out 200's? For the pilots? United has more apps on file than they can sift through, so whats the point?
Dosent make any sense as to why they would even consider it.
The current awac is not the awac of 10,20 or 30 years ago.Things have changed. So please enlighten us with your rational and reasoning.

HUH??!! Maybe you need to go back and read my statement CAREFULLY.. not once did I mention UAL will buy AWAC.. All i did was respond to the "clause" in the FA contract about purchasing another "airline" LOL Pretty simple if UAL wants to make an investment and buy another airline whoever it may be to benefit their bottomline they really don't need to be worried about that "clause" in the FA contract because money will take care of that.... I don't know how that statement about the FA clause makes you think all the sudden United wants to buy AWAC

Unfortunately these programs are here to stay. Flow works for AA on numerous levers. I don’t personally agree with flow but not much I can do about it. I would much rather see preferential interviews.

Of course. You bid off the plane after 6 months. You're then awarded at Group 2 pay aircraft and you'll be withheld on the plane for over a year if you change bases. Not a bad deal. Great schedule and great pay. Come on over.

They are working on 200 rates in a mid cycle contract negotiation sit downs.

It finally starting to look promising for us, just hang in there a little longer.... by the way we have an extension for you, please call scheduling.
BWAH HA HA HA!!! Man, you're slaying it.

This rumor has been going around in some shape or form at every UAL feeder for years. While it's obviously possible, I wouldn't base any career decisions on this one.

Thanks for the invite but I’ll stick to the Caribbean flying out of MIA :-)

I highly doubt you’ve been withheld for year and a half.

Change equipment or bases and watch them reset your Withhold. There are 4 people that are coming up on 2.5 years because of it.

Enjoy the Caribbean flying. I'm enjoying my 15-18 days off.
