New Crew Domicile Rumors?
 
I know nothing is official until it's official, but curious if there are any rumors circulating about any new domiciles.

Or now that MKE is open, is any further expansion unlikely in the near term?

ANC is on the table. Trips will start at 0200 local with a DH that you will not be released from.

I'd imagine staffing issues will need resolved before new domiciles are on the table.

I was told at a recruitment event that you guys will be getting some DEN flying with hopes of a domicile ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

FWIW the bigwigs were in ORD today and it was mentioned that they met with UAL and explained some of the scheduling inefficiencies being handed to us by UAL which seemed to be well received. They also stated they are exploring more domocile possibilities. But they have said that before and it turned into nothing so believe it when you see it.

I would prefer a meeting about getting rid of DGS for any and all ground handling operations.

"Sorry folks we're waiting to be parked. We contracted with our competitor Delta to handle our flights. They've pulled all the workers to go work their own flight."

Many of the DGS employees in the outstations worked for United previously. I see a lot of them still wearing United lanyards.
